Full steam ahead
Halo customer Bennion & Sons completed
an exciting installation recently, after the
Wakefield-based company were asked to fit
50 replacement windows at The Kirklees
Light Railway Station (KLR).
Director, Sam Bennion explains: “The job
was to remove the existing, rotting timber
windows and replace them with high-spec,
double glazed PVC-U alternatives. The
windows were of bespoke size and included
a number of absolute privacy glass units, and
obscure glass for areas such as public toilets.
“We used the esteemed Eclipse profile from
Halo as it was the perfect choice to meet the
high specification required by KLR and their
energy efficiency requirements. All of the
windows were fitted with opening top lights
to improve ventilation during the summer
months.”
Eclipse is a fully-versatile and totallyintegrated 70mm system, which is integrated
with Halo’s Esthetique chambered 70mm
system, meaning the same thermal inserts,
beads, ancillaries, reinforcements, mouldings
and hardware are used, which help to keep
stock holding to a minimum. It also offers
excellent thermal efficiency and can achieve a
WER ‘A’ rating.
