Sliding folding doors
sales up at CDW
Gloucester-based specialist aluminium fabricator CDW Systems Ltd reports
strong demand for its range of sliding folding doors.
CDW Systems’ MD, Jerry
Webb, says that the
company has benefited threefold: from the
increasing popularity
of the product in the
domestic sector; the
upturn in the economy
and its continued popularity in the commercial
sector.
He comments: “If we look
at the domestic sector in particular, the number of homeowners replacing their patio
door with a new aluminium
sliding door or bi-folding
door is increasing month on
month, year on year.
“In years gone by sliding
doors and bi-folds were

a niche product in the
domestic sector but this is
changing and many of our
customers are capitalising on
this opportunity.”
CDW Systems manufactures and supplies the ALUK,
SAPA and Smarts sliding
doors. Together with these
suppliers, CDW Systems
has made modifications to
the products, resulting in significantly fewer site call-outs
- and a smoother installation
process for installers.
Jerry comments: “CDW
Systems has been in business for more than 20 years
and is a specialist aluminium supplier through and
through. If you combine the
experience that we have on
the factory floor it equals
around three hundred plus
years! We utilise this in offering the very best products
and installation support.
‘offering the
very best’
“Installers can tap into
this by taking advantage of
our installation training and
on-site help if necessary.
Bi-folding doors represent
a lucrative avenue but for
those unfamiliar with the
product they can be difficult
to install at first.
“Our support service has
helped to minimise these
types of problems and
allowed our customers to
just concentrate on winning
contracts and offering a
fast-turnaround.”
CDW Systems recently
polled 5657 aluminium
installers in the UK for
an exclusive report into
the aluminium sector. The
results revealed optimism
going forward and gave an
insight into what installers
are looking for in aluminium
suppliers.
