Security Doors
Our high-security doors combine GRP composite materials with advanced locking systems to meet Police 'Secured by Design' standards. Each installation includes aluminium reinforcement, multipoint locking mechanisms, and a 10-year guarantee. Designed to resist forced entry while maintaining aesthetic appeal, these doors offer thermal efficiency and low maintenance requirements for residential properties.
Double Glazing
We supply and install argon-filled double glazing units with K-glass technology for improved thermal insulation. Our solutions include safety glass options, self-cleaning coatings, and decorative leaded designs. All installations feature internally glazed frames to prevent external tampering, with decade-long performance guarantees on sealed units.
Conservatory Installations
Custom-designed conservatories utilise weather-resistant materials and thermally efficient glazing systems. Our installations incorporate reinforced frameworks and security-enhanced windows to ensure year-round usability. Each project includes comprehensive consultation to align structural design with property architecture and client requirements while maintaining regulatory compliance.
Sash Windows
Traditional-style vertical sliding sash windows replicate authentic timber aesthetics with modern PVCu durability. Features include tilt-in functionality for easy cleaning, Georgian bar options, and enhanced security hardware. These units provide improved thermal performance over conventional sash designs while requiring minimal maintenance.
Roofline Products
Maintenance-free roofline solutions include fascias, soffits, and guttering manufactured from durable PVCu materials. Available in multiple colour options, these components resist weathering and UV degradation while enhancing property aesthetics.
