Tommy Trinder have made flush PVCu doors available to touch , show and price on the Framepoint ® app .

Sell the complete windows , doors and integral blinds package

Today ’ s interior trends and the demand for ‘ home tech ’ have opened up huge opportunities for window installers to complete the sales package by offering Uni-Blinds ® integral blinds from Morley Glass .
With curtains and traditional window dressings falling out of favour , homeowners are increasingly turning to blinds to provide the shading and privacy . But many also want clean sightlines and less clutter , which can be at odds with standard , wall or frame-mounted blinds .
This is why Uni-Blinds ® integral blinds offer amazing sales potential . Available for all types of windows and doors , these sleek blinds sit between the panes of glass inside double or triple glazed units . They are manufactured by Morley Glass exclusively
using ScreenLine ® integral blind systems inside , which means they will always look great and function reliably over their lifetime .
Buying Uni-Blinds ® from Morley Glass provides installers with total peace of mind that they are offering the best quality product in the UK market . And they are available in the shortest lead times – as little as 10-12 working days when ordered by 10am on Thursdays , with complimentary nationwide delivery .

“ The trend towards heritage style , ‘ timber alternative ’ PVCu products shows no sign of abating ,” says founder and CEO of Tommy Trinder , Chris Brunsdon “ Around 24 % of all PVCu casements quoted by installers on Framepoint ® are flush . Installers told us they wanted doors to match so we ’ ve pushed on and made flush single and double doors configurable too .”
Framepoint ’ s interface for configuring flush PVCu doors is slick and impressive as we ’ ve come to expect . Mid-rails and glazing bars can be free drawn with your finger , just like sketching on a pad . Then tap and touch add panels , textured glass and cills .
“ Details matter when it comes to selling value added products like flush PVCu doors ,” says Chris . “ Being able to model premium ironmongery and foils and instantly show customers the effect is important to the sale .
And , of course , ultimately it helps justify the higher price tag .”
Flush PVCu doors completes a volley of launches from Tommy Trinder over recent months , aimed at supporting top end PVCu installers .
Features such as the ability to touch and show
pegstays , both working and dummy , model deep bottom rails on sashes and the ability to show clients the difference between mechanical and welded joints in one touch are all now live on the app .
