Company No. OC364751 Derek Hibbart, Editor, Door Industry Journal welcome Warm sun is shining down outside my office as I write this to you. This means that winter is behind us, Easter is on its way, and - of course - the spring issue of the DIJ is here. I hope the weather is just as nice where you are, as you sit down to read this. But – before you reach for the sun cream – let me tell you a bit about what’s inside: • Tradify software is making life easier for many installation firms through a digital approach to job management and organisation (page 6) • Garador has launched a series of new brochures – in both print and digital formats – to showcase its extensive range (page 8) • Tentoma has released a RoRo StretchPack® packaging line for 6-sided sealed door packaging, which offers comprehensive protection against dirt and moisture (page 24) • One-Step Marketing has written a handy guide on how to maximise the marketing reach of recent installations (page 54) • Mydocking has developed a new van docking portal – the VS250 – for the parcel distribution sector, which boosts efficiency by sealing the area between the van and docking area (page 92) • Hörmann UK is combining visual style, security and thermal efficiency with a new range of aluminium entrance doors (page 106) • Strongdor has provided a handy specification guide for anyone who installs steel doors for customers (page 112) • C Prox-Quantek is reporting strong sales of its touch and proximity switches, which enable automatic door activation and access control (page 108) I hope you enjoy the magazine and have a good Easter. I’ll be back with you in a few months’ time for our summer issue.
