Doors, Windows & Fittings GARADOR’S ROLLER DOORS PERFECT FOR SEASIDE HOMES Arden Windows Timber windows are being increasingly used while the volume of PVC continues to fall. This is because timber is sustainable, easily repaired and has a lower whole life cost than plastic windows. A recent independent study done for the Wood Window Alliance, said that engineered timber windows have a useful life in excess of 65 years. In comparison plastic windows have a useful life of less than 30 years. Modern engineered timber uses knot, and defect free, lengths of timber that are laminated together to prevent warping and twisting. Arden’s high quality timber windows are factory finished with an etch primer, a midcoat and topcoat finish to our customers colour requirement whether it be a single colour throughout or, a different colour inside to the outside. Arden are also Secure By Design approved for higher security levels.

Homes within three miles of the ocean are generally considered to be at risk of salt related corrosion. For those with a home near the coast, Garador offers the perfect solution – the GaraRoll roller door. Gararoll is constructed from rust- resistant aluminium laths, which roll up into a box at the head of the garage door opening. Unlike steel or timber, the aluminium laths resist corrosion by moisture and salt in the air. Gararoll also maximizes space both on the driveway and internally in the garage, especially useful if you want to park the car close up to the garage door or need access to the roof for loft storage. Traffic White is a top colour favourite in coastal homes, but Garador’s GaraRoll also comes in a wide range of colours and finishes, including full timber effect and Deco Paint to enhance both modern and traditional style properties.
