FIT Show Review

HOME AR TOOLS GET UPDATE TO BRANDING

» PRODUCTION SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY( PST) has announced the rebrand of its augmented reality tool, vsHome AR, now relaunched as VisiRoom. The new name and branding better reflects the app’ s role in helping the homeowner and installers visualise home improvement projects in the real-world setting.
VisiRoom allows users to place life-size 3D models of conservatories, garden
rooms, windows, doors and more, directly onto a property using just a smartphone or a tablet. With three immersive viewing modes – Real Scale, Tabletop and Virtual Reality, the app helps the customer understand how a project will look and feel before committing. Designs can be shared via text, email or QR code making collaboration fast and straightforward.
The app integrates seamlessly with vsHome, PST’ s software built for retailers and installers. vsHome makes it easy to design, visualise and price projects using dragand-drop tools and a vast model library. Users can generate accurate quotes with automatic pricing, apply finance options, and produce branded reports in seconds – streamlining the sales and survey process from initial idea to the final contract.
In addition to the rebrand, PST has launched VisiConnect, a new feature within VisiRoom that connects homeowners directly with local installers. When a user explores a design, they are prompted to request a quote which will link them to a listing of nearby installers. Installers with an active vsHome licence are eligible for a free bronze listing in VisiConnect, simply by submitting their business details and opting in. For increased reach and visibility, Silver and Gold tiers are available.

Bespoke shines through with preview at FIT

» SHEERLINE BESPOKE HAD A DEBUT TO remember at this year’ s FIT Show, with the aluminium manufacturer officially unveiling Sheerline’ s innovative S3 Modern Single Pitch Lean To Roof System to widespread acclaim at the event.
Visitors were particularly drawn to the system’ s fully suited design, exceptional thermal performance, and architectural looks.
The S3 showcases Sheerline’ s commitment to engineering excellence with its Thermlock ® technology delivering 230 % better thermal insulation than a traditional conservatory roof.
Visitors were also impressed by the system’ s modern look, featuring clean architectural lines with shallow external rafter caps and deep internal structural bars.
“ The guttering has been a real point of interest,” noted Commercial Director Chris Cooke.“ The fact it’ s a fully suited design, with the frame matching the windows and doors, also really resonated with visitors.
“ These are now referred to as glazed extensions rather than conservatories in the market, and the beauty of our S3 roof system is that it will allow Sheerline fabricators to offer complete aluminium glazed extension kits that perfectly match so installers can remove an old conservatory, and the complete extension fits perfectly on the existing base.”
Operations Director Chris Baron added:“ The modern look of the S3, coupled with
the fact there’ s nothing like it currently available on the market, has really impressed people here.
“ It was also fantastic to reconnect with familiar faces and meet potential new partners who recognise the value our installation-ready kits could bring to their businesses.”
Beyond the S3, the stand also featured the award-winning S1 Roof Lantern, recognised as one of the UK’ s most secure lantern roofs, and showcased the company’ s industry leading SheerVent ® roof vent technology, available on all our S Series roofs, and arched frame capabilities.
As a new division of Sheerline, Sheerline Bespoke is positioned as a supplier of ready to install products that are quick and easy to fit for installers and a forward-thinking partner for fabricators who want to expand their product offerings without disrupting their core window and door production.
