21 PRO INSTALLER MAY 2014 PRO NEWS @proinstaller1 UNRIVALLED PERFORMANCE FROM COLORDOR A fully CE marked coloured PVCUu doorset brought to you by GBW. Mark Cuthbert, Managing Director of GBW explains the benefits of the new Colordor range. Coloured replacement door sets have been produced in the UK for 20 years now, but owing to costs; the original high performance bespoke rebated doorsets have been somewhat replaced by imported single rebated doors. With the market trend for coloured doors growing substantially, today there is a clear requirement for a high performance low cost coloured doorset. THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS The Colordor door set brings the best of both worlds; enhancing the performance and reliability of traditional UPVC doors and combining the colour options offered by composite doors. With the best of German technical expertise in a five chamber Profile and Cool Foil technology, combined with British knowhow in the high performance panel; Colordor brings you unrivalled performance in coloured doors. CE MARKING CERTIFICATION With the introduction of CE marking last year; installers who purchase their doors and glass separately will have to go through the CE marking process to comply with regulations. The Colordor door sets are a preglazed product carrying full CE certification, thus saving time and ensuring that the installer is fully compliant. The high performance coloured foils used in the product ensure that the sash and outer frame colour not only match exactly, but will not suffer from UV degradation as found with painted door finishes. As you would expect from a company of this calibre, the Colordor product range includes a high security lock and hinges as standard and is available with a comprehensive choice of furniture. “If you want a high performance coloured door set – pre-glazed and carrying full CE certification - at a reasonable price - then we believe you should look no further than Colordor,” says Mark.
