“BEST IN CLASS”
VS GETS BETTER
SWEET 16 FOR FENSA
» » FENSA, THE LARGEST AND
longest established Competent
Person Scheme in the replacem ent
window and door industry, this
year celebrates 16 years of serving
installers and homeowners.
Set up by the Glass and
Glazing Federation (GGF) in
2002, FENSA commenced
operations following a request
from Government to regulate the
market for replacement doors and
windows in England and Wales.
Since coming on the scene as
the original Competent Person
Scheme, it has become the largest
in the sector with almost 6000
companies self-certifying their
compliance under the Building
Regulations, issued more than 12
million homeowner certificates
and is now approaching the
13 millionth installation to be
registered through its scheme.
Chris Beedel, Director of
Membership, FENSA, says,
“FENSA is proud of its status as
the largest and longest serving
Competent Person Scheme in
the industry, and one of the most
trusted brands in glazing.
“Given that there are 23.5 million
households in England and Wales,
reaching 13 million registrations
will mean at least half of all those
households have used a FENSA
Member to install their windows
and doors. This shows not only that
FENSA Members are trustworthy
professional companies but also that
homeowners recognise the value in
using a FENSA Member.”

and vertical slider specialist
Warwick Specialist Window
Division has become the latest
fabricator to add the Spectus
Mechanically Jointed Vertical
Slider to its portfolio. Aaron
Fountain, Managing Director
of Warwick said: “We’re proud
to have been manufacturing
the Spectus Vertical Slider since
2001 and recognise it as the
best in class. The mechanically
jointed version takes the
window to the next level.”
Aaron comments on
the changing nature of the
market and says the Spectus
Mechanically Jointed VS offers
exactly what is needed. “Until
recently, mechanically jointed
Vertical Sliders were considered
the window of choice for the
heritage market but the move
towards higher-end products
across the board is making a
big difference. These days, we’re
just as likely to be asked for a
mechanically jointed VS for
a new build or retail project
as we are for a heritage one.
Whatever the scenario, the
Spectus Mechanically Jointed
VS delivers what’s required.”
Warwick Specialist Window
Division has been a Spectus
fabricator since 2001 and enjoys
a strong relationship thanks to
the quality of the product and
support on offer.
