New high-spec product range for secondary glazing

Granada Secondary Glazing has launched its ground-breaking new product range , which the company claims is set to be the most highspecification secondary glazing solution on the UK market .
» FEATURING ULTRA-SLIM , DURABLE aluminium frames , the entire range offers even narrower sightlines than its predecessor to create what is set to be the most unobtrusive secondary glazing system available for homeowners , trade customers and commercial partners . On certain product types , the redesign has increased the glass expanse by more than 30mm when compared to the original range , flooding rooms with extra natural light .
Zoe Grafton , Trade Sales Manager at Granada Secondary Glazing , comments : “ Long gone are the days of bulky , obtrusive frames and complicated locking mechanisms ; our new range is sleek , stylish and performs impeccably . We ’ re extremely excited to be able to offer the new range to our valued trade customers across the country .”
Customer consultation has been at the centre of developing the new range , which has taken over a year having been initially interrupted by the pandemic .
Innovative functionality has been incorporated , such as a ‘ slidepass ’ feature on the vertical sliding units that allows the panels to slide completely past each other for unbeatable cleaning access .
As well as superior aesthetics , the new range also performs equally as impressively from an acoustic perspective , ensuring products of all shapes and sizes remain quiet and tranquil .
Other key benefits of the new range include glazing up to 10.8mm ( versus 8.8mm in the original product line-up ), and the availability of integrated locks , cleats for even tighter mitres , restrictors and anti-lift blocks .
Mike Latham , Commercial Sales Director at Granada Secondary Glazing , adds : “ The early conversations I ’ ve been having with our commercial partners regarding the new range have all been exceptionally positive .
“ We wanted to put together a product that would give architects across the UK a secondary glazing solution that effectively tackled noise intrusion , offered extensive heat retention and looked great in the process . We believe we ’ ve ticked all three boxes and look forward to a hugely successful rest of 2021 .”
Suitable for all property types , Granada ’ s slimline aluminium secondary glazing frames can be powder coated in over 200 RAL colours at their 40,000 sq ft manufacturing facility . The Granada Glazing product range encompasses hinged , sliding , vertical sliders , including tilt back , and lift-out options . Full training and marketing support is available to installers across the UK .
