Services
Bi-Folding Doors
Our bi-folding doors maximise space and natural light with sleek, thermally broken aluminium systems. Featuring weather-rated designs, stainless steel rollers, and secure 3-point locks, they offer durability and security. Available in narrow frames with RAL finish options, these doors create seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces while meeting Building Regulations standards.
Composite Doors
Bespoke composite doors combine high security with low maintenance through reinforced construction. Available as front or back doors, they feature energy-efficient glazing, durable finishes, and customisable designs. These doors resist warping and fading, offering long-term performance with minimal upkeep while enhancing property aesthetics and security.
Conservatories
Custom conservatories add valuable living space with energy-efficient designs tailored to property style. Available in Edwardian, Victorian, and sunroom styles, they feature thermally efficient glazing and durable uPVC or aluminium frames. Lantern roof options enhance light and create a modern aesthetic while improving insulation and comfort.
PVC-U Windows
A-rated uPVC windows provide superior insulation and security with minimal maintenance. Available in traditional or contemporary styles, they feature multi-chambered profiles for thermal efficiency and come in various colours and woodgrain finishes. These windows reduce condensation and energy bills while maintaining property aesthetics.
A-Rated Glazing
A-rated double and triple-glazed units significantly improve thermal efficiency and noise reduction. With argon gas-filled chambers and low-E glass coatings, they minimise heat loss and condensation. These windows meet current Building Regulations while offering long-term cost savings through reduced energy consumption and enhanced home comfort.
