West Cornwall is rated as an area of ‘High Exposure’ – which means it has an average wind speed of 56 kilometres per hour. Coupled with above UK average rainfall at certain times of the year, and salt-laden winds from the sea on three sides, our local area demands high quality and high performance products for windows and doors. Plated mild steel components and fixings are not going to do the job for long, and will prove to be a bad investment over time.
Our uPVC doors are manufactured in our factory from the Synseal Legend 70 Profile system. The profile is made in the United Kingdom and measures 70mmm from front to back, providing both high strength and superior thermal performance. Our doors and frames are fully reinforced for maximum strength and rigidity, using aluminium to avoid unsightly rust marks in years to come.
All our hinges are made from stainless steel and are fixed to the aluminium frame reinforcement (through the uPVC profile) with stainless steel screws. The stiffness of the hinges can be adjusted to suit your needs by simple adjustment of a grub screw (our fitters will show you how to do this on completion of their installation of your door). We make extensive use of ‘offset’ or parliament hinges to give the maximum opening area to the doorway.
We only use internally beaded profile: this will only allow any glass or panel to be removed or fitted from the inside the building for safety and security. The Legend 70 system features co-extruded gaskets and ‘clearline’ glazing for a neat appearance.
We use shootbolt locks made from stainless steel which provide the highest level of security currently available. Our door locks incorporate two shootbolts, two rollercams and two counter-opposed hooks. This complies with the ‘Police Preferred’ specification and affords you great peace of mind while you are away from your property. This is undoubtedly one of the best locks on the market today.
Feature panels, or even whole doors, are available in a wide range of style and texture from a flat white panel to a highly decorated and contoured wood grain panel or door (link to ??? doors) – any of which can be painted, or have a cat (or dog!) flap inserted depending on location and your requirements.
