ALUMINIUM ALTERNATIVE IN 50 SHADES OF GREY
» » MANCHESTER-BASED FABRICATOR
Force 8 has always been quick to adapt to the
latest trends in the market and has recently
announced the introduction of its smooth
finish composite doors, which bear a striking
resemblance – especially when in shades of grey
– to an aluminium door that would typically
cost around four times as much. The doors are
available in 50 different shades of grey, including
various shades of silver grey, then anything
between black and white, which the company
can reproduce with a sample or RAL number.
The trailblazing company is offering the
smooth finish across its entire door range but
feels that it is especially suited to the ultra-
contemporary Decadence range.
Dennis Sumner, Managing Director
at Force 8, said: “The trend in windows
‘an ultra-high end look
without the price tag’
and doors for sleek lines in shades of grey
continues to grow, but many homeowners
simply can’t justify the cost of an aluminium
door as while they may look stunning, they
are prohibitively expensive to many. By
combining our new smooth finish with one
of the doors from our Decadence range, it
is possible to create an ultra-high-end look
without the price tag.”
