More people than ever are looking to extend or improve their homes to provide extra space for growing families or ageing relatives in a difficult housing market.
And, with a large percentage of UK workers now based at home, an extra room is fast becoming a highly sought after commodity.
Specialist aluminium door and window fabricator Alumen has seen a massive growth in the popularity of aluminium bi-fold and sliding doors as a seamless way of adjoining a home to a conservatory, ‘chill out zone’, granny flat or orangery; or of allowing that all important natural light into a garden room office.
There is a wide choice of solutions available for any specification, with both Schueco and SMART bi-folding door systems on offer from Alumen.
You can take your pick from the highly popular SMART Visofold 1000 and Visoglide systems; or well established Schueco range of bi-folding sliding doors – Alumen is one of only a select number of UK fabricators able to offer this. With adjustable jambs and ultra slim sightlines, the Schueco Ass70FD is a great seller.
The latest polyamide thermal barrier technology which creates a thermal transmittance barrier between the cold outside and the warm inside is also available on the sliding patio doors.
Those looking at high end orangeries and garden rooms will need to ensure that the aesthetics of the doors match the quality of the project, so Alumen’s retail-focused showroom is available for you to visit with you own clients to see the door options for themselves.
The highly experienced and friendly team are on hand to offer bespoke advice and technical guidance for every stage of your project.
