Peace of Mind Secured with a Weathertight Door Locking Solution from Maco

With storms of the magnitude experienced over recent years and forecast to be more commonplace in the UK, experts are warning the rise of sea temperatures and wind speeds in the North Atlantic are partly to blame. Sudden and heavy storms result in saturation of surface water causing flooding as the water cannot soak away into flood plains, or to existing drainage as this is often overwhelmed by the ferocity of the rainfall and in the worst cases causes flash flooding. According to the ONS (Office for National Statistics), close to 4 million properties in the […]

Rooms with the Slim 60 lantern roof benefit from more light and a feeling of space and height. The choice of K2 Celsius or Pilkington ActivTM glass means homeowners benefit from […]

Progressive Innovation From 3D Group

For 3D Group this year has been one of growth and innovation with new products launched that have been well received by customers nationally and internationally. From humble beginnings as a family run key cutting and shoe repair business, the Nottingham based company is now firmly established as a market leader with over 30 years locksmith trade experience. After spotting a niche market in auto locksmithing, the business developed this arm of the business further to provide a replacement vehicle key service which then grew to a wholesale trade business. 3D Group has never looked back, moving from shop premises […]

FrameXpress Returns to Cambridge University

The Framexpress team was once again brought in to help maintain the heritage associated with Cambridge University.  The restoration of a student accommodation block that is part of a constituent college at the University, required high specification solutions to complete  its redevelopment. The immense renovation has already seen more than £25,000 invested in new windows, doors and French doors, at the college all of which required Local Authority approval and were supplied by frameXpress. Being part of an accommodation block meant that insulation, sound proofing and easy maintenance were pre-requisites on the project. Optima Fully Reversible windows from the frameXpress […]

2nd best week ever for Solidor, and in July!

Solidor sold more doors in one week in July than any other week in 2016. Armed with the most secure composite door on the market and Solidor’s powerful marketing, Solidor installers are proving that quality breeds quality as they brush post-Brexit vote blues aside. Solidor’s best week ever was in November 2015 at the industry’s seasonal peak. Solidor CEO Gareth Mobley says: “We’ve continued our rapid growth in 2016. Our record week in July isn’t in our peak season, so it’s a sign we can look forward to more record breaking weeks in our peak months to come. It also […]

20 years of Kitemark Certification for The VEKA UK Group

The VEKA UK Group is continuing a series of notable anniversaries in 2016 as it celebrates 20 years of its products bearing the BSI KitemarkTM; one of the UK’s most widely recognised and respected symbols of safety and quality. The Group, which also marks 30 years of UK manufacturing in 2016, is consistently at the forefront of PVC-U system development. In 2005, for example, VEKA profile was used to fabricate the UK’s first BRFC ‘A’-rated window. And in 2007 the company opened a dedicated UK recycling plant, processing the old PVC-U frames that ultimately go into VEKA’s pioneering Infinity profile. […]

Fit Show’s Aeo Partnership Met with Praise at Nec Masterclass

Rather than staging its own day of training for its exhibitors like it has done in the past, The FIT Show recently joined forces with the respected Association of Event Organisers (AEO) – after last year becoming a member of the industry body that promotes the event and exhibition industry to marketers of all kinds – and invited its exhibitors to the industry body’s Exhibitors Masterclass at the NEC, Birmingham.

Locksmith Clippings and Musings August 2016 by Helen Duval

While we look to see where the safer waters may lie from a fiscal point of view after the Bank of England cut the base rate to 25%, it is undeniably uncertain times for most businesses.  Mark Carney’s decision will undoubtedly encourage more borrowing and less saving but is this good for business? Well for the locksmithing industry it seems to be heads down and business as usual with a number of new innovations and developments recently introduced by market leaders.  There is also a very positive vibe about the industry with much on the security radar that bodes well […]

Glazing Clippings and Musings August 2016 by Helen Duval

As many grab the opportunity to head off for warmer climes to enjoy some Summer sunshine and relax, it will be interesting to see whether they are as extravagant as they would like to be when spending their hard earned cash, given the new interest rate cut announced by Mark Carney. Although many were expecting the announcement, the Bank of England has also pledged a “package of measures designed to provide additional monetary stimulus”. So what is the knock on effect for business? Howard Graham, CEO of Made Simple Group stated recently about the interest rate cut: “This is welcome […]

Energy Efficiency in Glazing – What’s Changed in 10 Years?

It’s been ten years since the first WER seminar was held. ‘Increase your profits: Energy Efficiency in Focus’ was sponsored by Edgetech and brought together 223 key decision makers from the industry. The seminar was filled with debate on the big issues at the time: cutting VAT on Energy Saving Recommended Products, gas loss and the longevity of sealed units. “As the voice for energy efficient glazing, Edgetech not only played a part in sponsoring the first WER seminars, but was interested in the bigger picture of the industry. Looking back its interesting to see how the predictions have manifested […]

Kommerling Introduces Ivory Through Colour

Kömmerling has now introduced an ivory base colour for it’s proven C70 Gold window and door system and PremiLine patio door, including a number of supporting ancillaries, as demand continues to increase for non-white colours.

With matching cills and other ancillaries already available, the company is expecting a number of existing manufacturing partners to add this to their product range, with interest already high just a matter of […]
