» LEADING BI-FOLD HARDWARE supplier AT Precision has moved to a new , 120,000 square foot factory , significantly increasing capacity and ramping up production .

The new facility in Peterlee now houses 40,000 square feet for manufacturing , and 80,000 square feet for storage , meaning not only is there much more room for fabrication , but a significantly increased space for keeping finished products , ready for distribution .

Sales Director Michael Hewitt comments : “ When we first opened our doors just over three years ago , we were working from an 18,000 square foot factory , supplying our Everglide range of bi-fold hardware to aluminium fabricators across the country .

“ Over the years , we ’ ve not only invested in new state-of-the-art machinery , but also in significantly expanding our product portfolio to include the Everseal range of gaskets , security hardware , plastic

ancillaries , and composite door hardware . We also recently launched our new range of aluminium profile for bi-folds .

“ These developments have seen the company grow significantly – and as a result , we had outgrown our manufacturing facility .

“ The new year has been the perfect time to relocate to a much bigger site , and has allowed us to ramp up both production capacity and manufacturing speed , enabling us to meet a constantly growing customer demand .

“ At AT Precision , we ’ ve always prided ourselves on keeping lead times to a minimum , even during the dark days of the pandemic , and now , with an additional 80,000 square feet of storage space , we ’ re able to keep even more products in stock , ensuring our customers can get the products they need , when they need them .

“ The new facility has been an extremely worthwhile investment – thanks to the new space , I ’ m certain that 2023 will be a very successful year for AT Precision , and I look forward to continuing to provide our valuable customers with the high-quality products and service that they ’ re used to .”

AT Precision supplies a wide range of aluminium bi-fold hardware and gaskets , all compatible with major systems – and because all products are manufactured in-house , they come at a much more affordable rate compared to other suppliers .
