Urban Front celebrate 10 years
in business this year
Lumi Has Landed
Lumi the groundbreaking new, structurally bonded window
and door glazing system from Apeer, is set to take the
market by storm. Following its dazzling debut at Grand
Designs Live in London, the company has been overwhelmed with leads and enquiries for the radically
styled range of frameless windows, doors, entrance
glazing, French doors and a bi-fold door system.
A first in its field, the new Lumi collection is set to bring
the seamless sophistication of iconic glass structure to the
residential housing market.
Offering a frame-free, 'wall of light profile' the triple
glazed system is distinguished by its fused ceramic
colour border. This is available in eight different exterior
colours and eight further interior finishes.
Lumi comes with a 10 year guarantee (structural,
mechanical and colour fast).

Major Investment for Vicaima in UK

So where did it all begin and what have we actually
achieved in those 10 years?
The idea for Urban Front started much earlier than
2005, in fact it was 2003 that the seed was planted
when the founders, Nabil and Elizabeth Assaf, were
renovating a 1970’s house and couldn’t find a door that
was contemporary enough and made out of wood. .
Two years of research followed into the making of doors.
In 2005, after finding a company to make the doors for
them, the Assaf’s launched Urban Front from a tiny office
in Watford. Over the last six years, we’ve dedicated a
lot of research and development time to our anti-warp
highly insulated doors.
So what about the future?
This year we are planning major security testing in
addition to becoming FSC registered
Urban Front doors manufactured in Buckinghamshire, UK.
