MACHINERY RANGE PACKS A MIGHTY PUNCH
»»
AS THE MIGHTON MACHINERY range from Mighton Products continues to gain momentum following its 2016 launch, it has earned the company high praise from several skilled joinery firms across the country, with the latest review coming from Swift Joinery Manufacturers Ltd.
Drawing on significant personal joinery experience, the Mighton Machinery range came about following months of research and development by Chairman Mike Derham and the Mighton team. The range of machines is designed to make joinery production quicker, easier and more efficient for both the small or large-scale operator. The popular semiautomatic Mighton X-Cut™ machine produces perfect cross-joints on glazing beads, coming complete with tooling to suit the timber profile of the user’ s choosing. Accurate and consistent, it allows for simple tool changes and no lengthy manuals mean it’ s quick to set up and easy to operate.
With 16 years in the joinery industry, Steve and his team of 20 have been buying Sash Lift and Eyes, Angel Ventlock ® Window Restrictors and Securefitch ® Fasteners from Mighton for 10 years.
Mighton’ s Chairman Mike Derham adds:“ Swift Joinery has grown to become a true specialist in the manufacture of bespoke timber windows and doors.”

INSTALLER-FRIENDLY SYSTEM
»»
PROFILE 22’ S OPTIMA SYSTEM WAS developed with unique features to give installers an edge over other systems from both a sale and an installation perspective.
For example, Optima offers greater rigidity, improved weathering and U values as low as 0.8 W / m2K with argon-filled units. It’ s all thanks to its six-chamber outer frame( or eight with RCM thermal inserts) plus five chamber sash.
There is a wide range of coloured and foil finishes to allow installers to upsell the benefit of colour to the homeowner.
The system is also packed with benefits for the installation process. It has deeper legs than alternative systems, which means that if the survey was incorrect, on site trimming can be done. There are three fixing lug positions, which makes installation on new builds and extensions much easier and an increased wall thickness in critical areas provides greater screw retention. Optima has a single leg bead location which means there’ s no need for security glazing clips to pass security tests.
