Bifold doors
Our bifold doors combine German-engineered Schuco systems with tailored weather seals for Scottish conditions. Available in 200+ powder-coated finishes, they feature 4 stainless steel rollers for smooth operation and triple-glazed options achieving U-values as low as 1.1 W/mK. Each door is precision-manufactured in East Kilbride to exact specifications up to 1200mm wide x 3000mm high.
Sliding doors
Lift-and-slide systems from Schuco ASE 60 and Smarts Visoglide Plus offer seamless indoor-outdoor transitions. These doors incorporate weight-reducing mechanisms for effortless operation of large panels up to 3m high, with multi-point locking systems enhancing security. Thresholds can be sunk below floor level for minimal step-over while maintaining weather tightness.
Aluminium windows
Custom casement and tilt-and-turn windows using Schuco and Smarts systems provide superior thermal insulation. Available in dual-colour finishes with optional triple glazing, these windows achieve U-values below 1.6 W/mK as standard. Bespoke configurations include dummy sash and combination openings to suit unique architectural requirements.
Steel-look doors
Aluminium Crittall-style doors replicate traditional steel aesthetics at lower cost. The Smarts Alitherm Heritage system offers 120mm sightlines with thermal breaks, available as single/french doors or multi-panel screens. Internal Aluspace systems provide matching partition solutions in 100+ RAL colour options with coordinated handle finishes.
Roof systems
Aliver fixed rooflights deliver 40% better thermal performance than standard systems using warm-edge spacers and triple glazing. The concealed fixing design allows easy glazing replacement without frame removal. Orangery systems feature slim profiles maximising glass area while maintaining structural integrity and security.

We had excellent service from start to finish. The team are very professional and are very customer focussed. We love our Schuco bi-fold doors opening up the outside world, we also love our inbuilt blinds no cleaning and maintaining a sleek look. Highly recommend the company and the product.
