Door Industry Journal - Spring 2017

44 THE door industry journal spring 2017 garage doors Also online at: www.dijonline.co.uk WOODRITE – FREE FINISH SAMPLING SERVICE We’ve all read the small print “Colours shown are for guide purposes only and are limited by the printing process”, but how often do we press on regardless and allow consumers to order based on the colour of the sample in the brochure? It can end with an unhappy customer and quoting the small print to them never helps calm the waters! Timber, with all its glorious natural variation needs particular care and, to this end, Woodrite offers a free sampling service. Call them up with the details and in a few days a finish sample will hit your customers doormat. Sharon Cleaver, Woodrite’s National Sales Director commented, “It couldn’t be simpler and it takes away the uncertainty and risk. Our samples give customers a realistic expectation of what their door colour will be and we’ve yet to have an issue if a door has been ordered after a sample has been supplied”. Sharon added, “it’s free and quick - you’d be mad not to use the service!” Contact Sharon Cleaver at Woodrite on 01280 841010 for your next sample of the Woodrite range.

We all know that flexibility is a core part of any business, this has always and continues to be a key part of ALUTECH Group of Companies philosophy. As part of their flexible philosophy and continual improvements scheme, they have improved and redesigned the galvanised lifting cables for use with their sectional door range. As from January this year ALUTECH’s lifting cables no longer just consist of galvanised wire to make up the lifting cables, they now have a polymeric core at the centre of the cable as shown. Using a polymeric core at the centre of the cable enhances the flexibility of the lifting cable, and thus helps to extend its durability and performance. This not only extends the life of the cable, but the operating life of the door as well. This new feature and benefit is one of many offered by the Alutech sectional door. So if you are interested in finding out more about the other features and benefits of the Alutech Sectional door please contact Robyn on 01924 472 924 or visit www.jdukltd.co.uk to find out more. After all, flexibility is the key to stability! Lifting cable with the polymeric core
