A STAPLE ON YOUR SHELF WHEN YOU NEED IT
» » THE CROWN RESIDENTIAL DOOR
has been a staple of the Sapa product range
for many years. Replicating the square cut
aesthetics of traditional wooden back doors,
but with the strength and longevity of
aluminium. The new door is based on a three-
chamber construction, for greater strength and
performance. With symmetrically designed
door and framing, the new Crown Residential
Door has simplicity of fabrication and
installation at its heart.
Building upon the ease of manufacture, the
new Crown Residential door boasts a unique
adjustable hinge arrangement which allows for
full adjustment of the door during installation
to ensure correct alignment of door and frame.
To enhance the handing flexibility of the door
further, a universal locking strike plate is now
provided with a 24mm or 28mm pocket to
glaze from inside or out using sloped or square
beads.
The door is secured as
standard by a three -ook lock
supplemented by a security dog
bolt within the hinges. It is also
available with the Sapa patented
‘Dualsecure’ deadlock which not
only provides exceptional levels of
security but also makes the door
certified to PAS 24.
The New Crown Residential
door is available as a boxed kit of cut
off machined bars and accessories.
Made to order kits are cut and
prepped to your requirements only
requiring assembly.
Alternatively, the door can be supplied as
a ‘cut down’ Kit. The concept is simple, with
one door providing a solution for left and
right hand, open in or open out requirements,
with the minimal number of components.
A standard cut down kit arrives and simply
requires a square cut saw for operations to
door and frame elements, other preparations
are pre-machined ensuring a quick turnaround
for client orders. Standard ‘cut down’ kits are
produced in white and grey, for single doors
up to 2230mm high and 1074mm wide
and double doors up to 2072mm high and
2230mm wide. Matching mid rail kits are also
available.
James Wilson, Market Manager at Sapa
Building System said: “The new Crown
Residential Door is a great product. As a cut
down kit it is unique. Rapid fabrication from
stocked kits means door delivery for installation
is only constrained by glass manufacture,
allowing our customers to extend exceptional
service levels to their own customers.”

Westend Windows (Aberdeen)
Ltd has recently signed with
leading systems supplier Spectus
Systems and now manufactures
its popular Elite 70 window and
door suite. Having previously
bought in window and door
products, Westend Windows
made the decision to begin
fabricating earlier this year and
felt Spectus was the right systems
partner to take their business
forward.
Managing Director of Westend
Windows, Colin Stewart said:
“We chose Spectus as our systems
provider as we felt they have the
best products, people, marketing
and service on the market. Their
Elite 70 system can be used across
a full range of window, door
and conservatory applications–
including casement and tilt
& turn windows, residential,
French and bi-folding doors.
With a choice of bevelled and
ovolo beads, plus a large range
of ancillary products we have
a compelling product range to
offer both our trade and retail
customers.”
Westend Windows
manufactures their window and
door products from their factory
in Cairnrobin, Aberdeen. Fellow
Westend Windows’ Director,
Derek Mackenzie says: “The
market in Aberdeen is quite
buoyant at the moment so we
feel confident we can take our
business to the next level with the

support of Spectus. Not only
is their Elite 70 system a great
product for all market sectors,
but their technical and marketing
support is equally impressive
too.”
Westend Windows began
fabricating Spectus in October
2018. The company is looking
to further expand its product
range over the next few months
by introducing Spectus’ Patio
Door and the new Frontier
Composite Door and with
Spectus as its systems partner,
both Colin and Derek feel
the company is well equipped
for success. Colin concludes:
“Because our system partner is so
efficient, we can be more efficient
too. In Spectus we feel we have
a supplier that is capable of
supporting us and helping us to
achieve our aims.”
