“We're a glazing installation specialist celebrating and the preferred supplier for many major developers,” says Thom Emerson, Ideal Window Solutions’ sales & marketing director. “And for over ten of those years now we’ve been buying from Quickslide.”
Traditional styling
The King’s Weald housing development is located on a 19-hectare area once used by the Keymer Tile Works. Quickslide’s vertical sliders were chosen to complement the site’s aim to create a community of high-end homes that blend traditionally inspired detailing with stylish and comfortable modern design.
Quickslide supplied vertical sliders in white PVC-U with a single astragal bar in both the top and bottom sash. No sash horns were requested, to complete the heritage feel with a modern touch. Additionally, depending on their location, some windows also featured Quickslide’s enhanced PAS 24 security upgrade to comply with Document Q of the building regulations.
