Devonshire gets the cream
Devonshire Window Systems increased sales by 23% in the last year, thanks to the Spectus vertical sliding sash window. Managing director Darran Round decided to specialise in manufacturing vertical sliders four years ago and hasn’t looked back since: “We used to buy in our vertical sliders, but became increasingly frustrated with the unpredictable quality and lack of customer service. Manufacturing sliders is a big investment and much different to making casements. The tolerances are much finer and the quality has to be second to none for the product to perform perfectly. This degree of knowledge and experience is exactly where we are.”
From its 4,000 sq foot factory, VS EXPRESS currently fabricates 50 vertical sliders a week with eight employees dedicated to this expanding sector of the business.
