We opened the doors of our first trade showroom at our North West Division a little over a year ago, and now we are opening it up to the general public. The Bolton site plays host to the full range of VEKA, Halo and Residence products we manufacture. This includes the three flush sash options from Halo, R7, and R9 side by side to help make the most informed decision. On show are a number of door styles from the traditional and contemporary range from Doorco and the hardware choices from Fab and Fix, Sweet and the renowned Ultion cylinder for the ultimate in secure entrances. For the tech savvy our doors demonstrate the ease of the Kubu upgrade from the Avantis lock that is fitted as standard.
Nick Dutton, CEO of Brisant Secure joined us for the launch in November 2001 and said:
"I was really impressed with what Glazerite has done with the showroom. It's certainly the best I've seen from a trade fabricator."
Showrooms have made a massive resurgence in the industry over the last few years which were historically symbolic of the 80's double glazing era. Now finding their place again in the newly shaped fenestration industry, as gone are the days when we were just showing customers the glass options and a choice in the profile aesthetics, there are now so many options it's hard to understand the options without actually seeing, using and touching them.
The last decade has brought some of the more complex door options including bi-folds and sliding patio doors, all of which need a bit of practical demonstration to show the homeowner what it is they are buying and the simplicity of using it within their home. The Glazerite range has over 7000 items so between product styles, profile, colour options, joint finishes and hardware colours the sheer volume makes it almost impossible to demonstrate those options purely on a visit to the home. Homeowners are committing to a high value purchase and often the assurance of seeing the product in a showroom and knowing exactly what they are getting is what will help close the sale.
Our showroom showcases our full range perfectly and is open for anyone to take a look at how much is available.
