Established in 1996, Universal Trade Frames has the sliding patio door credentials installers should look for. It’s a family owned trade supplier committed to staying ahead of indus- try trends and delivering consistently high-quality products and support. Sliding patio doors have been a fixture in Universal’s portfolio since the very beginning. Universal’s sliding patio door is available in 2, 3 and 4 pane options and a range of colours and woodgrain finishes. It has stainless steel tracks and wheels for a smooth sliding action. There’s a purpose-designed mid-rail that accepts a let- terplate to maximise poten- tial uses. And as evidence of the quality on offer, they come with a 10-year guar- antee. The company recently up- graded the locking system on the door. The new lock has a high security 6-point locking mechanism with op- posing hooks, mishandling device and an additional anti-lift bolt that increase security even further. www.utfl.co.uk less sliding integrated Venetian blind system (SL20SV) from Morley Glass & Glazing is now smoother, quicker and slimmer. The side rail that houses the cleverly designed magnetic operating slider on Uni-Blinds® sealed units is now 20 per cent slimmer, creating a larger glass viewing area and a slimmer 40mm profile. Mounted on the internal face of the glass unit, the magnetic slider allows total control and ease of use of the SL20SV integral blind. Only one device is used to raise and tilt the slats. The external slider “logically” moves in the same direction as the blind operating direction. Like all Uni-Blinds® sealed units with integral blinds inside, the SL20SV sliding system provides a low maintenance and contemporary feature for any double-glazed window or door. The integral blinds are assembled and permanent- ly sealed within the dou- ble-glazing cavity which comes with Technoform warm edge spacer bar tech- nology as standard to offer optimum thermal insulation. Once sealed in this totally dust-free environment, the blinds require no cleaning, always appear new and are protected from damage. www.morleyglass.co.uk Polyframe extends PVCu range with new conservatory offering Polyframe is set to help even more installers grow their businesses and steal a march on their com- petitors with an enviable new conservatory offering.
