Door Industry Journal - Summer 2012

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT - STANDARD SIZE CANOPY DOORS FROM LEGBUD UK As you probably know, Legbud has become synonymous with innovative products, and making all those awkward sized doors that are so essential to create a truly complete range. So now what next, you may ask, something else unusual or unique? Well for Legbud, it is a bit leftfield - but it’s a Canopy door, yes that’s right - a Canopy door - and what’s more, we can deliver you 7066 and 7070 canopies next week if you need them quickly, so give us a call. Obviously, as we always do things differently, we don’t just have “bog-standard” canopies available, we offer competitively priced 60mm frames; secure clunk locks; wider rollers for a smoother operation; and as part of our entry level range, we also offer a wide ribbed panel. The new canopy doors were only introduced at the beginning of May, but it has been no surprise that they have taken off so dramatically, especially for site work. When Anton Edwards from Cannock based, Premier Garage Doors got a call for 17 standard doors, he immediately thought of Legbud’s new canopy door. And it was just as well, because when he measured them, there was only one or two that didn’t need the Legbud treatment. As the Legbud canopy range starts at 5’6” wide, and 5’8” high, and goes all the way up to a standard 9’ 0” wide, Anton was able to solve his customer’s standard needs quickly, and at a competitive price. IDIGBO – PALE AND INTERESTING Idigbo is a beautiful pale hardwood - interesting because it looks very similar to oak, yet is lower in price and more stable in its natural form. The perfect choice then, for creating the Warwick range of doors, new to the Woodrite Coach House collection of garage doors. “Oak is a beautiful material and we’re developing a collection of oak doors, but we wanted to offer our customers a timber that had similar looks but at a more accessible price” said Sharon Cleaver, Woodrite’s Sales Director, “Idigbo was the ideal material and the reaction has been very positive, particularly as all doors are supplied fully factory finished and are available with matching idigbo frames” FSC certified idigbo is finished in Natural Oak, Old Oak and Brackley Oak shades and doors are available in panel and chassis build or solid build in up and over and side-hinged designs.
