Door Industry Journal - Summer 2016

58 THE door industry journal summer 2016 Also online at: www.dijonline.co.uk garage doors ALUROLL LEAD THE WAY WITH EXTENDED RANGE OF STANDARD GARAGE DOOR COLOURS, ALL WITH MATCHING BOX AND GUIDES Aluroll’s two most popular products, the Classic and Compact roller garage doors, are now available with matching box and guides as standard. The change is a response to an increasing number of consumers opting for matching components to maximise aesthetics. Matching enclosures and guide channels will be available for all solid colours from Aluroll’s recently expanded range. This means everything from traditional favourite Anthracite (RAL 7016) to new addition Duck Egg Blue (NCS S 2030 B10G) will have matching components. They are currently offering more colours with matching boxes and guides as standard than any other supplier, with 17 options available for the Classic and 13 for the space-saving Compact design. The improved appearance is already proving an extra selling point for customers. While 1 in 10 orders specified matching box and guides when a surcharge applied, this has now risen to 6 in 10 orders. Traditional white and brown box and guides remain a popular default choice, and brown will continue to be as standard for laminate and painted wood effect doors. In-house powder coating facilities mean special RAL / BS colours are still available on request. Mark Evans, Managing Director of Aluroll, said: “We continually strive to improve our products, and the availability of matching box and guides as standard has been well received. Our customers have also benefitted from the recent introduction of two new colours, Chartwell Green and Duck Egg Blue, which are becoming increasingly popular in the home improvement market”. The customer order forms have been updated accordingly, and a colour sheet is available to clarify all available options. Speak to the Aluroll office on 01691 679257 to request copies.
