meet the highest demands for
design comfort and security,
whilst simultaneously reducing
CO2 emissions through energy
efficiency, thereby conserving
natural resources.
The company and its Metal
and PVCu divisions deliver
tailored products for newbuilds
and renovations, designed to
meet individual user needs in all
climate zones.
Customers looking to give
their property a stylish makeover
would do well to consider the
benefits of co-ordinating the
look of Schuco’s new doors and
windows.
The door that does
more than just
opens and closes
A front door does not just
provide access to a house; it can
make a real difference to the look
and kerb-appeal of the whole
property. Everyone accepts that first
impressions are very important and
a stylish Schueco ADS door from
the Schueco Contemporary Living
Collection can add an instant
‘wow’ factor all by itself.
Schueco ADS doors combine
a sleek modern appearance with
unrivalled performance in use
and excellent weather-tightness.
They are designed to be fully
glazed or they can be customised
with a variety of infill panels. In
either case, they deliver a level of
thermal insulation that can help a
property score a highly desirable
EPC rating.

Schueco have achieved this
through the use of improved
profiles and enlarged insulation
zones, making possible
outstanding ‘U’ values as low as
1.4 W/m2K for the latest superinsulated .SI versions.
Schueco ADS doors also offer
a reassuring level of security to
EN 1627 RC3 and can be fitted
with surface-mounted hinges,
concealed hinges or barrel hinges,
all of which have undergone the
same rigorous testing regime as
the doors themselves. All these
benefits come at a price that is
very competitive.
Importantly, for customers
who are looking to update their
whole property, a door – such as
the Schueco ADS 70 – integrates
seamlessly with the complete
Schueco AWS window range.
The latter includes the Schueco
AWS 70 tilt/turn window, a
standard type of opening found
all over mainland Europe, which
continues to gain popularity here
as well.
Again, Schueco ADS 70 is
totally compatible with the
hugely popular Schueco ASS
70 FD folding/sliding door.
Ideal for both commercial
and residential use, this door’s
excellent water-tightness and
attractive design, featuring
radiused frame edges, has made
it a popular choice for a wide
range of environments.
Delivering typical ‘U’ values
of 1.7 W/m2K, the system can
accommodate as many as 16
leaves which can be stacked so

that they project inwards or
outwards. Precision-made rollers
and a top guide ensure that even
doors with multiple leaves are
always easy to open and close.
To sum up, by choosing a
co-ordinated combination of

matched Schueco door and
window systems, your customers
will make a positive contribution
to enhancing both their own
comfort and the capital value
and overall saleability of their
property.
