Services
Aluminium shop fronts
Custom aluminium shop fronts combine security with aesthetic appeal through powder-coated frames and double-glazed security glass. Our systems incorporate anti-snap cylinders, concealed door closures, and bespoke branding options. Designed for retail stores, offices, and commercial premises, these solutions offer thermal efficiency while maintaining slim profiles for maximum natural light.
Emergency glazing
24/7 emergency response for broken windows and doors, including boarding, glass replacement, and security reinforcement. We handle domestic and commercial properties, using toughened glass and safety film to restore security. Rapid turnaround from initial boarding to permanent replacement minimises vulnerability periods.
Boarding services
Temporary boarding solutions for damaged glazing using high-grade plywood and anti-tamper fixings. Services include debris clearance, frame protection, and access point retention. Ideal for post-break-in scenarios, vacant properties, or weather protection during repairs, ensuring compliance with insurance requirements.
Bi-folding doors
Slender-profile aluminium bi-folding doors maximise light transmission and space opening capabilities. Our systems feature multi-point locking mechanisms and thermal breaks for energy efficiency. Custom configurations accommodate residential conservatories and commercial entrances, combining modern aesthetics with robust construction.
Glass replacement
Double-glazing replacement for uPVC and aluminium frames, including heritage-style units with leaded glass. We match existing specifications or upgrade to enhanced security glazing. On-site measurement ensures precise fitting, with options for low-emissivity coatings and argon gas fills to improve thermal performance.
