What the job involves
Take-off from the drawings
The package is set out from the architect's elevations in our drawing office, so the mullion and transom lines are resolved before anything is cut.
Specified in an approved system
The package is specified in Comar or Senior Architectural systems to suit the elevation, the performance required and the budget.
Colour to the specification
Frames are supplied in the RAL colour the architect specifies.
Installation to your programme
Delivered and installed in the sequence the main contractor needs, so the following trades are not held up.
Hand over and snag
Glazed, sealed, checked and handed over with the paperwork the building needs.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work directly for main contractors?
Yes. Most of our work is a subcontract package for a main contractor, set out from the architect's drawings and delivered to the site programme. We also work directly for building owners and occupiers, particularly on servicing and replacement work.
Which aluminium systems do you install?
We are an approved installer for Comar and for Senior Architectural Systems. In practice that means Comar 6 and 6 EFT curtain walling, Comar 5Pi and 9Pi windows, Comar 7 and 7Pi doors, Comar 1, 3, 9 and 13 shopfront framing, and the Senior SF52, SCW, SPW 600 and Ali Vu ranges.
Which automatic door operators do you install?
We are an approved Assa Abloy and record installer. That covers the Assa Abloy SL500 sliding operator, the SW100, SW200 and SW300 swing operators, and the record DSTA 20 and DFA 127, along with the PSL and PSW ranges.
How often does an automatic door need servicing?
Twice a year. Automatic doors fall under the machinery regulations, and to conform to EN 16005 they should be maintained twice annually. Our service team provides six monthly visits planned in advance so the building is not caught out.
What does a service contract include?
Our service contract guarantees prioritised call outs at fixed rates and discounted spare parts, on top of the planned six monthly visits. We cover automatic doors, manual doors and roller shutters.
