As part of their ongoing product development programme, Endurance® Doors have now switched to the proven, plugless ODL Tri-SYS glazing cassettes, in response to customer demand for their solid and secure timber composite doors. The introduction of the ODL TriSYS glazing cassettes is yet another product development from Endurance® Doors, alongside the recently introduced Avocet 3-Star ATK anti-bump cylinder and the clever RocFoam technology to the base of their solid and secure timber composite door slabs.

FIT Show 2016: A Real Social Event

FIT Show 2016 might be over but after taking a closer look at the social media statistics associated with the build up to the UK’s window, door and conservatory trade show, it’s clear that the industry is now fully engaged with Twitter and other social media outlets. If the social media statistics from FIT Show 2016 are anything to go by then non-users might want to get on the digital media train before it leaves the station. With attendance at this year’s FIT Show a massive 45% up on the 2014 show with 8,502 unique visitors it only makes sense […]

Free Window Energy Ratings (WER’s) for Glazing Installers is Old News!

Recently in the trade press much has been made regarding the availability of free Window Energy Ratings (WER’s) for glazing installers. At Certass TRR, this is old news and glazing installers have had the opportunity to benefit from this option for a couple of years now. There are two options available to the Certass TRR glazing installer to have a WER in their own company name. Which of the two options a glazing installer selects is dependent upon the purchasing habits of the glazing installer. The Certass TRR glazing installer options are: Option 1 – Use a Certass TRR registered […]

The Customer Is Not Always Right – Here’s Why………

Every established business owner has drilled into their staff that the customer is always right – the problem with this statement is the customer isn’t always right and to think otherwise can result in a serious disservice to you, your company and more importantly your customers. Replacement window and door installations are bespoke products as they are designed, manufactured and installed by the installation company. Therefore, the installer is the designer, surveyor and installer of this manufactured bespoke product and holds legal obligations to the consumer as the person/company having the professional knowledge. The installer is duty bound to know […]

Glazing Clippings and Musings May 2016 by Helen Duval

Renovations are an enormous undertaking and even bigger financial consideration, with that in mind it’s rather felt like being in ‘the front line’ this month, as I’ve looked at various areas of my own property that need upgrading. Feeling as though I had a slight technical advantage, it has been really interesting to see how the glazing sector sells itself on a one-to-one basis with a keen and eager investor. I also wanted to learn from builders and professional installers about performance and product options. With the project being a large one, it was natural to want the best of […]

Dear Lee, When modern methods start being added into standards and legislation, we see a real shift in the industry. We saw it with energy efficient windows and now we’re seeing it with installation tape. The industry got taped up at FIT Show. The response to TruFit®, our expanding foam edge tape was incredible. Installers wanted to talk not only about the cost and time savings of using sealing tapes, but also systemising installations in a way which maintains the energy efficiency of the window. The heightened interest in the alternative fitting method has coincided with the recent revision of […]
