Door Systems
CREATING A DOMESTIC ID
Ash Pearson, Sales Manager at Jack Aluminium, discusses the ID30, the latest addition to
the specialist aluminium systems supplier’s range for the domestic market.
Hot on the heels of the launch of our
SD70 heritage style aluminium door and
screening system for external applications,
our new ID30 not only creates one internal
system that could be used for a full range of door
opening designs, but it offers incredible flexibility
when it comes to design.
ID30 has been purposely engineered for
interior use and is suitable for both domestic
and commercial projects – perfect for office
partitions, artists’ studios, separating open plan
kitchen-diners, or simply replacing traditional
timber internal door sets.
The same profile can be used to fabricate a
versatile range of configurations of doors,
including single- or double-hinged doors; sliding
doors; pivot doors; and bi-folding doors.
The system offers minimal sightlines with no
extra bulk or clunkiness, which often comes with
external or more traditional systems.
Locking mechanisms are housed within the
slim door stile, using specially designed
mounting kits which feature clever, 3D-printed
componentry. All hinges are concealed for an
incredibly sleek finish. Soft close and soft open
options are also available, as well as a wide
range of RAL colours – creating the perfect
internal aluminium glazing system that is fast
to fabricate and easy to install. Just as you’d
expect from Jack Aluminium.
We’ve done everything we can to make ID30
an easy add-on product to open doors into
the internal commercial fit-out market and to
help installers win more work from domestic
projects. It’s the perfect complementary
product to our SD70 slimline external doors, so
homeowners can get heritage styling – inside
and out.
ID30
Why choose heritage?
After speaking to customers and looking into
growing interior trends, ID30 was born. Current
trends are telling us that more homeowners,
architects and interior designers are looking
to install slimline, heritage-style screening in
interior spaces as a way of maintaining high
levels of natural light, while creating different,
high-end aesthetic ‘zones’.
It’s apparent in the research, too. The 2023
Rated People Home Improvement Trends Report
showed that interest in open plan has fallen
by 26% and is, instead, being replaced by the
trend for ‘broken-plan’ – which is a perfect fit
for the internal glazed screen market.
The launch of this new internal glazing system
therefore comes at an optimum time for
fabricators and installers, who are looking to get
ahead in these new markets.
Why Jack Aluminium Systems?
When Jack Aluminium began, we had a
laser-sharp focus on making life easier for
the whole commercial aluminium system
supply chain – delivering a better, faster and
more friendly service to customers. We offer
value-engineered, high-performance products,
with extensive technical support and fast
turnarounds, which has been replicated with the
supply of our domestic aluminium range.
SD70
This was demonstrated in our flagship product,
TD68. We invested heavily in TD68, to ensure
it met PAS 24:2016 standards, as well as
additional PAS 24 testing on door sets with
different configurations, access options and
hardware combinations. It also achieved
STS202 status, making it one of the most secure
aluminium commercial doors on the market.
As such, our commercial range grew to
encompass products, such as the JCW curtain
walling suite and JD47 non-thermal system.
However, customers wanted more and the
development of our TW70 window proved to be
a pivotal point for the Jack Aluminium range,
which allowed us to extend the many benefits of
our systems to the domestic market.
Applying the principles of our commercial
aluminium service to our domestic products
enables customers to do more and now we
are seeing fabricator-installers approaching
us specifically about our domestic products,
proving the high demand for aluminium glazing
systems delivered with great levels of service,
the Jack Aluminium way.
