DOORS & WINDOWS
PROUD SPONSOR OF DOORS & WINDOWS

The common goals of football and fenestration

»»
YORKSHIRE-BASED WINDOW and door fabricator and vertical slider specialist Quickslide Windows has strengthened links with football with a hattrick of football club sponsorships.
The first partnership, with Huddersfield Town, also known as The Terriers, extends over several years to when the Premiership was just a dream. Quickslide Chairman Adrian Barraclough:“ The Terriers have been quite an inspiration for Quickslide with the philosophy that success can be achieved with good, honest hard work, great spirit, and sharing common ideals, all whilst having fun, and we identify with that spirit.”
Quickslide is also the ground and shirt sponsor for Brighouse Town, which plays just two miles from Quickslide’ s HQ, and many employees and local customers being players and fans. A two-year deal will also see the Quickslide brand festoon the first team shirts of Uttoxeter Town, an arrangement that came about through friends of Adrian.
He adds,“ I have always enjoyed sports and believe that much can be learned in life and business through sporting ethics and philosophies, as well as the sheer enjoyment of getting involved, even though at heart I am a York City fan, but you can’ t win them all!”

Lucky 7 bags showroom of the month

»»
LEAMORE WINDOWS IS THE latest company to win the Solidor Showroom of the Month honour, with a newly expanded showroom environment comprising of seven premium composite doors at their established premises in Walsall.
The company is also celebrating its 35th year in business, making it one of the longest established home improvement and glazing
businesses in the West Midlands, and has been a long-standing Solidor customer since 2012. The recent expansion in the number of Solidor composite doors on display to seven, has been the result of an increase in demand for a better entrance door from consumers, in terms of design and unrivalled security.
Gary Hackett, Leamore Windows MD commented:“ People ask for a Solidor by name and for good reason, as it’ s the best composite entrance door out there, backed by unrivalled marketing. We’ ve found out over the years that price is less of an issue with this composite door and so we’ re able to achieve strong margins consistently. While sales of our other home improvement products fluctuate, our entrance door order book remains full pretty much all year round, which is hugely beneficial for us.”

Supplier reunion after just six months

»»
MPN UPVC WINDOWS, DOORS & Conservatories Installations Ltd has chosen to supply VEKA systems once again, after trialling another PVC-U system for just six months.
The family-owned company- with three showrooms across South Wales- has also re-joined Independent Network in order to regain access to a host of industry-leading business support.
MD Paul Webster explains:“ We’ ve used VEKA for the last 11 years, and never had a problem, but we thought it might be time for a change. What if we were missing out on something better? We moved over to a new system but after six months we had to admit it was nowhere near the top quality we were used to.
“ The quality of VEKA profile is exceptional and there’ s a massive range of window and door styles to choose from, in a huge number of colours.
“ We were also keen to return because it meant we were eligible, once again, to join Independent Network. Being part of I. N. gives our customers total confidence to invest in home improvements with us. Trust is everything in this industry, and the Network assures customers that they are getting an excellent product, with fantastic service.”
