‘FIT Show was
the best show
in 20 years’
» » THE 2017 FIT SHOW WAS
the ‘best show in 20 years’
according to Phoenix Doors,
which unveiled a number of new
composite door developments on
a shared stand C58 with its parent
company MASCO UK Window
Group.
Winning the Best Stand
Design Over 80m² at the FIT
Show Awards was the ‘icing
on the cake’ that topped an
incredibly successful show for the
Cambridgeshire-based PVC door
panel and GRP composite door
manufacturer.
Speaking after a hectic three
days, Phoenix Doors’ Sales
Director Haydon Statham
enthused, “Wednesday was a
particularly busy day on the stand.
The group’s product displays
together with our Meridian Door
and new County Collection door
designs were inundated all day. In
my opinion, it was the best show
for customer visitors I have seen in
20 years!”
At the FIT Show, Phoenix
Doors revealed its expanded
County Collection composite
door and Meridian 70mm
double-rebated composite door
ranges and how they can offer
yet more customer choice,
including bespoke colours. Fresh
contemporary glazing designs
and a new multi-point entry lock
also attracted much interest from
fabricators and installers.

Dyer has added to its extensive
offering with the innovative
Invisifold slide and swing
door.
Renowned for its versatility,
the Invisifold system converts
a conventional patio or French
door into a highly-flexible,
sliding and folding solution,
allowing homeowners to create
large openings to outside
spaces. The Invisifold system
is quite unique, as every sash
can be operated independently
to create partial walkways and
provide ventilation anywhere
along the opening.
The Invisifold is available
in a wide range of colours and
woodgrain finishes, allowing
homeowners to authentically

New 85mm outer frame
solves three common issues
» » SPECTUS HAS JUST
launched a new 85mm outer frame
and it solves a wealth of problems
for fabricators and installers.
The new and bigger outer
frame solves three of the biggest
problems that installers face when
fitting doors and windows. The
new outer frame means that fitting
hinges to the frame becomes a lot
easier because there’s no need to
try to avoid damage to plasterwork
or having to make good the
surrounds and décor. Trickle vents
are also easier to accommodate
with no compromise to
functionality or aesthetics needed.
The bigger size also means no need
to use packers on any apertures,
saving time, extra expense and
ensuring a much neater finish.
Martin comments: “We
launched the new outerframe at
the FIT Show and installers and
fabricators were quick to see the
benefits.”

A sleek appearance is achieved
through concealing the hinges

VBH, which allows the sashes
to fold closer together for an
uncompromised opening.
