Full steam ahead
Halo customer Bennion & Sons completed an exciting installation recently, after the Wakefield-based
company were asked to fit 50 replacement windows at The Kirklees Light Railway Station (KLR).
Director, Sam Bennion
explains: “The job was to
remove the existing, rotting
timber windows and replace
them with high-spec, double
glazed PVC-U alternatives.
The windows were of bespoke size and included a
number of absolute privacy
glass units, and obscure
glass for areas such as public toilets.
“We used the esteemed Eclipse
profile from Halo as it was
the perfect choice to meet the
high specification required by
KLR and their energy efficiency
requirements. All of the windows were fitted with opening
top lights to improve ventilation
during the summer months.”
Eclipse is a fully-versatile and
totally-integrated 70mm system,
which is integrated with Halo’s
‘fully-versatile and
totally-integrated’
Esthetique chambered 70mm
system, meaning the same
thermal inserts, beads, ancillaries, reinforcements, mouldings
and hardware are used, which
help to keep stock holding to a
minimum. It also offers excellent thermal efficiency and can
achieve a WER ‘A’ rating.
Stuart Ross, General Manager
of K irklees Light Railway comments: “Since the installation,
we have already seen a noticeable difference in heat levels
throughout the station building.”

Boosted
brochure
for retail
installers
Glazerite Windows Limited
has launched its own enhanced version of the NEW
VEKA retail brochure with
additional information and
images as well as all hardware tailored specifically to
the Glazerite product range.
sdfsdfsdfs
The trade fabricator has also introduced three new categories to
its existing range of VEKA-based
product brochures, bringing the
total now to six.
In the 24-page retail brochure,
Glazerite has added a number of
product revisions and up-to-date
images, including several specific
to Glazerite installations, plus
additional pages on the extensive
range of styles and colours of
hardware offered to its customers. There is also an entire spread
‘Our installers
want to sell
themselves, not us’
on the importance of security in
the home along with a clear and
detailed breakdown of how this
can be achieved with Glazerite
windows and doors.
One notable absence however is any reference to Glazerite, so continuing the fabricator’s philosophy of allowing
installers to project their own
quality and professionalism
alongside the global reputation
of the VEKA systems. Glazerite Director Jason Thompson
explained: “Our installers want
to sell themselves, not us, so
we are more than happy to remain transparent and let them
do that.”
