Part Q Manual

»»
IN CHARACTERISTIC Liniar style , the in-house technical experts at the innovative systems house have reviewed the legislative requirements for Document Q compliance and produced a flawless guide for the benefit of its fabricator customers .
Described as ‘ the best of its kind ’ by several of the first fabricators to get their hands on a copy , the Liniar Part Q Manual uses detailed illustrations and instructions to explain how to achieve compliance for every Liniar product in the range .
Paul Garforth , Technical Manager for Liniar , explains : “ We ’ ve already undergone the rigorous process of testing ,” he explains , “ so the new guide has been designed to save our customers time , cost and effort - providing they use the exact same components we used in testing .
“ In many instances this will mean that no further testing is required – so all fabricators need to do is request a copy of the PAS 24 test certificate for each of the product types , which can then can be used to show compliance .
“ If customers also wish to carry out their own product testing , then the multi-purpose details within the new manual may also be used for guidance ,” concludes Paul .

KERB APPEAL

»»
RYBURNE WINDOWS SAYS Residence 9 ( R9 ) installations attract the neighbours , leading to more sales for the Halifax fabricator and installer .
Ryburne Managing Director , Peter Willemse , says : “ R9 looks amazing and performs excellently . We recently installed some stunning windows in a home because the homeowner wanted modern performance but didn ’ t want to change the look of their property , which had tired timber windows . When we finished the installation , we were approached by a neighbour who wanted the same great windows in their home .
“ It proves that R9 really does add kerb appeal ,” adds Peter . “ It ’ s sympathetic to traditional
homes , and homeowners love that they don ’ t have the expensive maintenance they ’ d get with timber .”
R9 was designed with a clean sheet to match the dimensions and detailing of traditional timber windows . R9 is the only PVC composite window Planners accept in conservation areas and listed buildings , because that ’ s what it was designed for . It looks like timber , but has the performance and low maintenance of PVCu .
Residence Collection Managing Director Dan Gill says : “ When people see it , they don ’ t know it isn ’ t timber . When they find out they ’ re amazed .”

FRAME FINISH CHALLENGE

»»
TRUFRAME HAS LAUNCHED A frame finish challenge , to scour the nation for a better finished standard PVCu window frame , than those carefully produced using their unique 4-step hand finishing process , at their manufacturing facility in Melton Mowbray , Leicestershire .
Now approaching a regular 4,000 frame per week output , the company continues to employ a 4-step hand finishing process that has served them so well over many years . This process involves the checking and refinishing of the corner contours , levelling off the outside edges , ensuring uniformity of the corner grooves and the cleaning of all apertures for weld-build up , by 15 full-time , skilled craftspeople .
While the company still harnesses the latest cutting and machining centres , they believe that it is in the very finer detail of frame finishing that makes all the difference , as Managing Director , David Firmager points out : “ It would be easier to eliminate this additional process . But I , along with our valued customer base , value the attention to detail , added quality and the fact that it ’ s part of our unique proposition at TruFrame .
“ I fully stand by the quality of our products and would challenge any installation company to find a better finished frame .”
