400th Member Milestone
South Manchester’s
Everglade, a fabricator
and installer of Halo
window and door systems from The VEKA
UK Group, has celebrated becoming the
400th member of the
leading profile manufacturer’s renowned
Approved Installer
Scheme.
The initiative, launched
less than a year ago at
the FIT Show 2014, offers
installers a raft of benefits,
not least access to a suite
of professionally designed
marketing materials,
customisable via its online
Marketing Hub.
Amy Grundy, National Sal es Manager for the
Approved Installer Scheme
explains: “Besides benefiting from the association
with The VEKA UK Group,
the country’s leading manufacturer of PVCu door and
window systems, installers gain numerous other
advantages by becoming
‘Approved’.
“The online Marketing
Hub offers Approved Installers a wide range of marketing materials at a fraction of
the normal cost.
“Our Fabmatch website
links Approved Installers
with Approved Fabricators in their area, helping
to create a practical and
efficient infrastructure,
and ensuring they receive
quality products, each and
every time.”
Perhaps one of the
biggest draws of the Approved Installer offering is
the targeted sales leads it
provides, free of charge.
Amy continues: “Potential customers can visit
the homeowners’ section
of www.vekauk.com, providing their postcode and
details of the work they’d
like done. We pass the info
to their three nearest Approved Installers who then
contact them to advise and
discuss further.
“We’re excited to have
Everglade mark this
milestone in the Approved
Installer Scheme’s history.
They’re an established and
respected fabricator and
installer that easily met our
criteria for approval.

Imagine Patio Door
Glazerite Windows Ltd is set to launch its innovative
Imagine Patio Door in full production after the system
earned applause at its FIT Show preview.
The Patio Door is the latest
addition to the VEKA Imagine
family, joining the widely
acclaimed Bi-Fold and Flush
French doors, and combines
the benefits of the current
patio system with a host
of new enhancements and
developments.
Glazerite Director, Jason Thompson, said: “Our existing patio door
has been a firm favourite of installers for some time, so we have
very high hopes for the Imagine
system with its improved technical performance, wider range of
options and easier fitting.
“Our entire Imagine range
is proving very popular with
installers and consumers and we
are very pleased to be adding the
patio system to that offering.”
The Glazerite Imagine Patio
Door is available in 18 colours
and foils from the VEKA Variations
range, with a choice of sculptured
or bevelled sash and bead as well
as a midrail option for a letterplate.
Opening doors can be made to
slide internally or externally, or
both doors can slide if required,
and a choice of two, three or four
pane configurations is available.
The system has a stepped outer
frame to couple with standard
70mm products and ancillary
products. Its interior sits completely flush for improved looks and a
neater plaster line.
The system boasts an array of
specifications and special features
including: Aluminium interlocks
for extra mechanical strength;
Unique quadruple seal interlock
for maximum weather resistance;
Secured by Design; Tested to
BS6375 and PAS24 and optional
aluminium low threshold.
