Bi-fold hardware supplier AT Precision has increased its production and storage capacity with the opening of its new 120,000 square foot factory in Peterlee.
The new facility now houses 40,000 square feet for manufacturing, and 80,000 square feet for storage.
Sales director Michael Hewitt said: “The new year has been the perfect time to relocate to a much bigger site, and has allowed us to ramp up both production capacity and manufacturing speed, enabling us to meet a constantly growing customer demand.
“When we first opened our doors just over three years ago, we were working from an 18,000 square foot factory, supplying our Everglide range of bi-fold hardware to aluminium fabricators across the country.
“Over the years, we’ve not only invested in new state-of-the-art machinery, but also in significantly expanding our product portfolio to include the Everseal range of gaskets, security hardware, plastic ancillaries, and composite door hardware. We also recently launched our new range of aluminium profile for bi-folds.
“These developments have seen the company grow significantly – and as a result, we had outgrown our manufacturing facility.
“The new facility has been an extremely worthwhile investment – thanks to the new space, I’m certain that 2023 will be a very successful year for AT Precision, and I look forward to continuing to provide our valuable customers with the high-quality products and service that they’re used to.”
