Sheerline has added a clip-in bead option to its Classic aluminium window and door system, giving customers the option of supplying frames and glass separately.
The addition uses a clip-in bead based on the existing Prestige bead design and eliminates the need for wedge gasketing. It also means there is no need to mill the beads during manufacture.
Windows are available in the same Stepped and Contemporary sash styles as the rest of Sheerline’s range and in two outer frame sizes, both in flush fitting, or standard options.
Sheerline CEO Roger Hartshorn said: “Our new clip-in bead system is a game-changer for fabricators and installers who are tired of working with traditional aluminium frames that simply don’t offer the modern benefits that our systems offer.
“One of our key aims for the Sheerline brand has been to overcome the weaknesses associated with traditional aluminium systems. We’re a solutions-focused business and the fabricators and installers we work with drive what we focus on. That’s why we’re striving to make aluminium as good as it can be.”
