How we work in Gerrards Cross
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Gerrards Cross identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Evidence you can file

Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Gerrards Cross budgets are not open-ended.
Key checks for Gerrards Cross projects
Why choose steel
Steel profiles stay slim at higher ratings and carry heavy glass without bulky frames, which suits stair cores, lobbies and offices where light matters.
Finishes and the rating
Paint and powder coat are normally covered by the evidence, but intumescent strips and seals must not be painted over. We protect them during finishing.
Weight and fixing
Steel screens with insulating glass are heavy. Fixings are taken from the system details and the substrate is checked to carry the load.
