INSTALLERSUPPORT AUTOMATIC DOOR TRAINING OPEN TO INSTALLERS » » CDW SYSTEMS, THE GLOUCESTER- based trade and commercial fabricator, has joined forces with automatic door specialists Prosale to offer installer customers training around automated doors. The new training sessions extend a long and successful partnership between the two firms whereby CDW manufactures and supplies aluminium doors, ready for Prosale to apply their automated gearing. The training takes place at Prosale’s state-of-the-art facilities in Gloucester and is designed to give installers a complete overview of specifying and installing sliding, swinging and revolving automatic doors. “We are absolutely delighted to partner with Prosale to support their installer training initiative,” comments Mike Davis, Managing Director of CDW Systems. “Whilst automatic doors may be a popular feature in a wide variety of commercial projects, they can still be complex. If specified or installed incorrectly, they could quite easily cause projects to be delayed or lead to costly call-backs to site. “This training brings together the leader in automatic door technology and one of the industry’s most respected aluminium fabricators to give installers complete product and installation training on a wide range of door systems. This not only ensures projects are completed correctly, but reputations are safeguarded, and relationships are protected. It’s a fantastic initiative from Prosale and we’re delighted to be involved.” Mike Coggins, Director at Prosale Automatic Doors adds: “We’re really thrilled to have the support of CDW Systems for our new training initiative. It’s fantastic to have a company with the experience and expertise of CDW Systems right on our doorstep. Our shared passion for delivering unrivalled quality and a complete service makes them a perfect partner for our business and this initiative. “We want to thank Mike and the CDW team for their help with this training project and their valuable supply partnership. The training rigs supplied by CDW are not only used for our training, but also by the ADIA (Automatic Door Installation Association). The ADIA frequently use our rigs and training facilities for their courses and the response has been incredibly positive which is great to see. It’s all part of our commitment to give installers across the UK the support and confidence to install both of our companies’ products in all kinds of residential and commercial projects.” www.cdwsystems.co.uk Winning installer in the frame » » WILLIAMS WINDOWS IS AN experienced double-glazing installer based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. Renowned for customer service and a wide array of products, the team have made themselves a reputable name in the home improvement industry in that area. Williams Windows was named Endurance Installer of the Month for July after getting involved with the photography scheme; whereby installers are encouraged to take pictures of composite door installations. Endurance caught up with Roz Williams from Williams Windows: How Long Have You Been an Endurance Customer and What Attracted You to the Endurance Product Range? “Just over three years. We moved to Endurance because we believe the solid core composite doors to be of a higher quality – they don’t move or bow. We chose Endurance as from the get-go they were keen to work with us and offered great support.” What Is Your Most Popular Endurance Product? “We do a lot of Abbot and Etna style composite doors, with anthracite grey by far our most popular colour.” Would You Recommend Other Installers to Join the Endurance Preferred Installer Network? “I would definitely recommend Endurance. I think that the door designer is a great tool, our customers love it. As part of the Installer Network, we get access to that ourselves and we also get leads.” What Makes Endurance Different to Other Composite Manufacturers? “Firstly, there’s a massive choice of products, they even now offer a foiled trim which is brilliant. The relationship we have with Endurance is fantastic right across the board, even down to the delivery drivers, who I think they get overlooked sometimes; they are an asset to the Endurance team.” Endurance’s Marketing Manager Scott Foster took time to praise Williams Windows for their hard work: “As part of our Preferred Installer scheme, Williams Windows receive homeowner leads generated by Endurance which are always followed up quickly and professionally. Williams Windows also regularly share high quality photography of their Endurance doors installations. We have even commissioned professional photography of installations they have shared with us.” For more information on how to become an Endurance installer, email markeitng@ endurancedoors.co.uk or call 01652 659259.
