Commercial Doors THE COMMERCIAL ADVANTAGE Ash Pearson, sales manager at Jack Aluminium, talks about approaching residential projects from a commercial angle. W ith the announcement from government in early summer that there would be a consultation on the future of home planning, it was good to see the inclusion of easing of restrictions for changing the use of commercial buildings into residential properties. Over the last few years, we have seen a trend for transforming old mills and factories into modern, industrial-style living spaces and many of our clients have been utilising our highperformance commercial glazing systems to achieve the specifications set by architects for these transformational projects. It’s always fantastic to see old, disused buildings brought back to life. With the sad situation of the high street in decline, and the success of working from home for many companies this year, we predict that there will be more opportunities to turn old commercial properties into residential developments. This gives a great opportunity for both fabricators and installers. Getting into commercial Jack Aluminium’s roots are in commercial glazing, so we approach product development from a commercial perspective, which is proving invaluable. We understand the intricacies of the commercial market and the stringent specifications that need to be met. Every system has been designed, adapted and developed to meet these stringent needs and we have ongoing investment in testing our products with bigger sizes, different configurations and specialist hardware combinations to ensure optimum performance. This makes it easier for fabricators to get the windows and doors right for these change-of-use conversions, because our commercial range is easily adaptable to this high-spec market. TD68 commercial doors featured in a residential lobby Openings for windows and doors on these existing commercial buildings are usually bigger than on a standard domestic property, but our commercial systems already have the performance values and test data ready for fabricators to deliver larger doorsets and windows at the right spec. Lobbies and communal entranceways need to be kept secure and offer high thermal efficiency, as well as being robust enough to withstand the harsh everyday use that these high-traffic entrances receive. Our TD68 thermal commercial door system has been tested to PAS24 standards with a range of remote opening options, which perfectly lends itself to newly residential apartment blocks and dual-purpose buildings. TD68 thermal commercial doors It’s been more than 10 years since we first launched the TD68 commercial and shopfront system to the market and it has proven to be one of the most popular commercial doorsets on the market. Straightforward to fabricate and easy to fit, it’s designed to perform superbly and has been installed in all kind of commercial properties, from schools to hospitals, care homes, leisure facilities and sports clubs. It has also featured in a range of conversion projects, including the transformation of an Edwardian Mill into 89 modern apartments in Leeds and a former solicitor’s office into 28 eco-friendly apartments in Manchester. Adding commercial doors to your range For fabricators who are being asked for commercial glazing options for large conversion jobs, we make it simple and straightforward to offer TD68 thermal commercial doors. We offer a cut-length service on door stiles to reduce waste and we deliver fast. Single-colour powder-coated profile is delivered in fiveseven working days whilst dual colour is available in 10-15 working days. Doors are PAS 24 and Secured by Design accredited, even on motorised and magnetic remote locking door configuration options, for the utmost security standards and high levels of thermal performance. We also have our TW70 TruEnergy window system that is suitable for both residential and commercial applications and offers the same high specifications. We predict this relaxed planning will offer many more opportunities for fabricators and installers in 2021. If you’re not involved in the commercial market at the moment, Jack Aluminium’s TD68 thermal commercial entrance door is the perfect entry-level product.
