our dedicated team.”

ULTRA-SLIM DOOR SLIDES INTO FINAL FIVE
» » BOOMING ULTRA-SLIM SLIDING
door brand Viiu is celebrating after its ground-
breaking product was named a finalist for the
G18 Best New Product of the Year award; a
particularly sought-after accolade.
Sales Director Rod Tate said: “For us,
it’s important the market realises that Viiu
isn’t just an exceptional sliding door – it’s
a comprehensive package designed to help
installers grow their businesses.
“We arm our Key Dealers – trusted
installation firms who have exclusivity in
their area - with a wealth of quality point
of sales material, and a showroom package
that helps potential clients get up close
and personal with Viiu, a fantastic way of
converting leads.”
Viiu can boast ultra-slim sightlines,
secure laminated glass throughout and an
ingenious, unobtrusive design. Viiu’s outer-
frame is entirely built in to the façade, giving
it the appearance of an uninterrupted wall
of glass.
A patented adjustable interlock section
allows perfect alignment to maximise
performance and aesthetics - and was robust
enough to make Viiu the UK’s first PAS24-
2016-accredited ultra-slim sliding door.
What’s more, a motorised option is also
available – and its drive gear is discreetly
housed in the unit’s 100mm head profile,
which itself is hidden behind the building’s
façade.
