Philip Annear Windows Ltd provide professional service with Fenster Fabrications

Here, company founder Philip Annear, explains why working with Fenster Fabrications is the future when ordering aluminium glazing for his customers and their varied home improvement projects in the UK.

He says:

“We’re only a small company so working with fabricators who can deliver a good, quality service that is fast and efficient means everything to us here at Philip Annear Windows Ltd.
“When I order a product, I need to know exactly when it is going to be delivered – and this is one of the main reasons I like to use Fenster Fabrications. Once my order has been placed, it’s very reassuring to receive an immediate acknowledgement from the team at Fenster telling me when the product, either a window or door, will be ready.
“When you’ve paid upfront, and you’re trying to plan out your busy workload, it is vital that suppliers keep to their word and pull out all the stops to get products out on the week they’ve said. This is exactly how a good business should run.

“It means I can schedule the installation, put the job in my work diary, and let customers know when we will be coming to complete the task.
“Delays on delivery can cost me valuable time and money, and that’s not acceptable. Fenster Fabrications understand that when you’re a fairly small business, this simply can’t happen, and I know they try to be supportive to smaller firms.

“Within the last six months, I’ve ordered patio doors, bifold doors and other smart aluminium systems from Fenster.

“The team is very experienced, and I value their expertise and knowledge.

“Here at Philip Annear Windows, we try and offer the very best service to our customers and we believe Fenster fabrications also cares about the service it provides.

“We have enjoyed a solid working relationship with Fenster Fabrications over the last three years and I hope this continues in the future.

“Fenster Fabrications seems to understand how important it is to provide a professional service to customers – and that is something that means a lot to us.

“Since the beginning of this year, we have worked well together and staff at Fenster Fabrications know how important it is for me to deliver a project on time and without any last-minute glitches. I pride myself on providing a professional installation – from start to finish.

“What’s been equally helpful is the personalised brochure showcasing Fenster products which has enabled us to secure more business.

“Overall, I have been pleased with Fenster Fabrications. I’d like to thank the team for working hard to get their products out to me on time. It is very much appreciated, and it means I can give my customers what they want. I hope my relationship with Fenster Fabrications continues to grow.”

Uni_Slide

These beautiful videos feature our Uni_Slide system. It’s leading the way for aluminium sliding door development.

Combining simplicity, performance and elegance, this aluminium door system offers clean and minimalist lines so homeowners can enjoy their properties and live life to the full. And if they’re keen to capture coastal views like this and soak up the sun, this robust system perfectly frames any beachfront location.

Terrific technology means the Uni_Slide is so simple in its design that it just blends in. At the same time, it’s robust enough to cope with the varying climate that a beachfront location in the UK might offer.

With its super slim aluminium frames, the Uni_Slide door slides effortlessly open to showcase the room in all its glory. It creates a knitted together space, joining the inside and outside with elegance, luxury and charm – which is key to any successful interior design project, especially if you live in Devon or Cornwall and have this picture-postcard view.

The premium-quality ultra slim aluminium sliding door system oozes charm and due to its limitless run of panels, it can be assembled as part of any residential redesign or in a commercial business setting too.

Today, the trend for sleek and stylish aluminium glazing has grown at a rapid rate, but demand for this versatile, flagship product from Fenster Fabrications has never been so high. It seems Uni_Slide doors, designed to be best-in-class, has taken what customers already love about glazing and catapulted it to another level.

Fenster’s Fab Installer Support

Brian Webb, Business Development Manager at Fenster Fabrications explains: “At Fenster we work hard to create a service that makes life easier for installers and gives them the confidence to make aluminium a big part of their remit.

“The trend for aluminium glazing is showing no signs of stopping and the marketing literature pack features all the options that are available, from slimline Heritage glazing to bi-folding and sliding doors for domestic projects as well as commercial aluminium glazing options.

“It’s all part of the Fenster commitment of delivering sensational products, crafted to perfection with great service and quality.”

Fenster Fabrications manufactures aluminium glazing from its headquarters in Devon and has a whole host of third-party accreditations including BSI, PAS 24 and Secured by Design accreditations.

BSi recognition for fast-growing Fenster Fabrications

“For recognition among consumers and the trade, few standards can match BSi,” commented Fenster Fabrications Managing Director Tony Drake. “We wanted BSi accreditation to ensure that no matter who uses our services, whether they be trade clients, commercial developers or end users, they can have complete confidence in Fenster and the products we provide – and we’re absolutely delighted to have been approved.

This is just a start, though. We’re constantly striving to improve – and our next goal is to join the Secured by Design initiative, thereby offering potential customers even greater assurance that when they buy from Fenster, they’re getting the highest quality aluminium windows and doors.”

Managed by the Association of Chief Police Officers and now mandatory for public buildings and social housing, Secured by Design consists of a number of standards designed to encourage businesses to build crime prevention measures into their products.

Long respected for its uncompromising commitment to quality and outstanding design, Fenster has been used on a number of occasions to test new products by systems company Smarts. In addition to offering the full range of products from Smarts, the company also manufactures Üni_Slide, an ultra-slim aluminium sliding door, equally suited to commercial and residential applications.
