ALUMINIUM FRAME + COMPOSITE DOOR = INDUSTRY FIRST
»»
IF THERE ARE TWO PRODUCTS that have really taken off with homeowners in recent years, it’ s aluminium frames and composite doors. Both have quickly become the UK’ s favourite choices and now installers can take even greater advantage of their popularity with one of the leading names in aluminium products – REAL Aluminium – adding market-leading composite doors from Virtuoso Doors to its range.
With their levels of craftsmanship and quality taking door manufacturing to a new level, Virtuoso’ s composite doors are among the best in the industry. Their addition to the REAL Aluminium range means installers now only need to deal with one supplier rather than several, in order to offer homeowners a complete full-home installation.
“ It’ s part of our overall strategy to support installers by giving them all they need from one source,” says John Adams, REAL Aluminium’ s customer service director.“ We’ re determined to lead the way in creating a product range that’ s second to none and the addition of these superb composite doors goes a long way to achieving that goal. I think they’ re a magnificent addition to our offering and one that any homeowner would be proud to own.”
A recent investment in the latest cuttingedge manufacturing equipment has enabled Virtuoso to not only craft each door with absolute precision but to also offer installers an extremely quick turnaround, which mirrors the added value customers receive from working with REAL Aluminium.
REAL Aluminium’ s ultra-slim aluminium door frame is the ideal companion for all Virtuoso composite doors including Virtu- AL – the UK’ s first aluminium textured, non-woodgrain finish composite door. Homeowners can now match their aluminium window frames with the REAL composite door frame to achieve a sleek, consistent aluminium look.
John adds:“ These developments to the REAL Aluminium product range are a huge boost for our installer partners, helping them to really enhance their offering and bring more quality products to the homeowner. Time is money and installers don’ t have time to shop around for all their products – the extended range from REAL Aluminium means they don’ t have to. With all their aluminium products in one place and an incredible support package behind them, installers can look forward to selling more and growing their businesses.”

IF YOU HAVE A UNIQUE ENTRANCE, Force 8 has the frame and the door for you.
Dennis Sumner, Managing Director of Force 8 comments:“ We are the only company to be able to offer you fully and part arches that are suitable for any entrance. Every composite door that is available from Force 8’ s exclusive ranges can have an arched frame which will allow you to expand the choices that you can have.”
Force 8’ s arched composite doors are available in a VEKA Halo or System 10 profile with a one-piece sash bend that is fully reinforced. A 1200mm stainless steel square offset pull handle is on both sides of the door with a slam shut available. Force 8 uses SFS Dynamic 2D hinges which have style and security as standard. There is also a low ally threshold available, giving better disability access.
“ Whatever style of entrance you have, our craftsmen at Force 8 are up to the challenge.
Our unique profile bending process produces un-blemished one section curves, enhancing any home. As we manufacture all our doors in our Hazel Grove factory, we can shape them to fit perfectly in our frames”, comments Dennis.
Depending on the style of the arch, this allows for welds and steel reinforcements to be used where possible, creating the true radius of the arch. By using this process, this allows Force 8 to design and manufacture arches and curved sections of any size to the correct measurements.
Force 8 has also recently developed the Versace door, which was based on a customer’ s needs. The part-arched composite door is set within a full arched frame but is set off centre; giving the entrance a contemporary edge. By listening to customers Force 8 can develop new ideas and designs that people want, the first rule of business is finding out what your customer needs are, and then delivering them.
Force 8 is well known nationwide for its renowned unique profile bending and arched composite doors. To back all this up, Force 8 can deliver products nationwide, so you are never far away from amazing service and arched composite doors.
