Long standing Duraflex fabricator Window Vision has provided a tailor made PVC-U solution for a cosmopolitan Miller Homes development in the heart of Glasgow city centre. In order to meet local planning requirements, all tilt and turn window and door profiles for Variety Gate’s mix of 63 refurbished and new build apartments were supplied by Duraflex specially foiled in a subtle shade of grey.
Window Vision was asked to re-quote for grey doors and windows when the architect’s original specification for a white PVC-U system was turned down by Glasgow City Council’s Planning Department. ‘They insisted on grey to harmonise with the local surroundings,’ explains the company’s Sales Manager, Pat McCluskey. Given the volume of profile required for the project’s 350 windows and 50 or so doors, Duraflex was only too happy to provide this service from its extensive range of standard range of foils.

Window Vision fabricated all the doors and windows using Duraflex’s 65mm Diamond Suite system, which fully complies with U-values required under Part J of Scottish Building Regulations. Tilt & turn style windows were chosen for easy access for cleaning and maintenance.
