PVC-U fabricator adds aluminium window range
July 2016

QUICKSLIDE has launched an aluminium window range, promising to make the material as easy for the installer as choosing PVC-U.

Managing Director Michael Connor said: “We want to smash the myth that it takes over a month to turn round a good aluminium window. We are also offering installers the same level of service and support – as well as the best possible lead-times – that we have given them with PVC-U for over 15 years. So, whether they are new to Quickslide or already using our PVC-U range, they will find it just as easy working with us for aluminium or indeed both.”

The new windows are based on the Alitherm 800 system from Smarts, which offers the potential for WER ‘A’-Rating, U-Value 1.6 W/m²K, with a basic soft-coat IGU. The system has also been designed to achieve PAS24 and the company hopes to gain accreditation as soon as possible.

Quickslide has been making aluminium doors at its Brighouse, West Yorkshire, manufacturing unit for some time. Four years ago, it launched the Smarts bi-fold and more recently the sliding patio.
