Always our open day of choice

It will come as no surprise that we get invited to quite a few open days and events here at Clearview . On the invitations , there is always the promise of exciting launches and lunches , tours and talks , demos and displays , giveaways and goody bags .

KUBU
Over the past year , in partnership with CWG Choices , PRO Installer has reported many times on the fantastic benefits of Kubu . Kubu Smart Sensor Technology is in full use and standard on all Kömmerling O70 and C70 products . Kömmerling windows – residential doors – Alternative to Timber doors and Solidors are all prepared ready to accept KUBU technology and so produce ‘ peace of mind ’ to all those of us who like to be sure that our homes are secure .
At the open day , we attended one of the Kubu
