DOORSEXTRA sponsored by The Heat Is On! With the race for market leadership hotting up among the major Composite Door suppliers in the industry, IG Doors, Richard Kirman - Sales and Marketing Manager for Truedor, tells us why the company has now added a fire door to its offering. »»“The composite door sector is a fantastic place to be at the minute. The demand for products has never been higher and with that comes an expectation that the leading companies in the sector will continue to push the boundaries and expand their range.” “IG Doors is in our 35th year of making composite doors and the logical step was a fire door, which we have been manufacturing successfully for 25 years available to the trade.” “Our fire door comes with the same great technical pedigree as the rest of our products. It goes without saying that it is fully certified by an independent body as a FD30, which includes as standard smoke seals and fire seals. It is also an outstanding performer in terms of sound insulation.” “But what people perhaps don’t realise is that it also comes with many of the same features you would expect on ‘standard’ composite doors. It can be fitted with a letter plate, again fitted with certified and appropriate seals, it comes in a range of colours and styles; there is a range of glazing options, and it has fully matching top lights and side lights.” “With more and more residential owners choosing flats and apartments over traditional homes the market for fire doors is growing all the time. Consumers still want the same opportunity to enhance their homes as people in traditional two storey housing and a composite fire do or gives them the option. The benefit for us that comes from manufacturing and selling this type of door for over 25 years is that we know it works and that it is proven in the market place. For us, it is entirely the right time to launch to the trade market and support our customers.” “It is the latest, but by no means will it be the last product to be added to our range and highlights the point that demand and expectation since we entered the trade market a little under a year ago has been phenomenal.” All Truedor products are available to order on-line via www.truedor.co.uk 70 » M AY 2015 » CL EARVI E W- UK .
