Sheerframe Doors Can Resist The Floods
Door selection made easy with Vicaima
Morley Glass and Glazing
Windows, doors and curtain walling manufactured and
installed by CMS Window Systems ha ve played a key role
in creating the ideal internal environment within a stylish
facility created to support the families of children
undergoing treatment at the Royal Hospital for Children,
Glasgow. This ‘home from home’ facility provides free
to use amenities and accommodation, including 30 bedrooms and plenty of outdoor green space, for families of
sick children from all over Scotland.
More than 65 windows were manufactured by CMS using
Metal Technology’s System 8 curtain walling system for
the outerframes and their 4-20 thermally broken casement
system for the opening vents. These large opening vents
all feature parallel opening hinges to deliver much greater
natural ventilation within individual rooms for a healthier
internal environment.
CMS also manufactured and installed over seven entrance
doors created using the Metal Technology 5-20D system.
Sheerframe flood doors have been independently
accredited and Kitemarked to meet the specifications of
PAS 1188-1 (Flood Protection Products Part 1: Building
Aperture Products) for single and double doors.
At the respected test centre at HR Wallingford, inward
opening Sheerframe PVC-U doors recorded “no leakage”
at 0.6 metre external submersion under static test over 48
hours.
The doors also remained watertight under dynamic tests
simulating waves and rapidly moving water. French
doors are also approved with just 0.001 litres of ingress
after 48 hours, which compares most favourably to the
standard test pass leak rate of up to 1000 ml/m/hour.
Sheerframe flood doors not only hold water out but,
unlike the alternative of flood boards, they function easily
and look like normal doors. In addition, they are fitted
with specialist hardware to provide near impregnable
watertightness and achieve PAS 24 levels of security.

All colour options for Synseal’s Global conservatory
roofs and Global Summer hybrid orangeries are now
available directly from stock, to reduce lead times for these
popular aluminium and PVC-U glazed roofing products
which are supplied as made to measure kits to thousands
of industry installers through Synseal’s extensive
network of fabricator partners.
In addition to White, the stock colour range now includes
Anthracite Grey, Black/Brown, Chartwell Green, Cream,
Golden Oak and Cherrywood.
“While traditional White is clearly the favourite finish for
all our footprint styles of conservatories and orangeries, the
continued surge in demand for alternative contemporary
colour options is only going to increase as more and
more consumers look for something a bit different”
comments Synseal’s Head of Marketing Mark Schlotel

is growing demand for larger windows and doors – both
