Key checks for Sutton-in-Ashfield projects

Species and density count

Timber screens are tested with specific species and minimum densities. Softwood substitutions or thinner sections can fall outside the evidence.

Insulating glass weight

Heavier insulating glass may need larger sections; we confirm the frame can carry the chosen build-up.

Beads are part of the rating

Bead profile, height and fixing type and spacing are all taken from the test. Short-cutting the fixings is a common reason screens fail inspection.
