For PVC fabricators, manufacturing square window and door frames is a process that could be done with their eyes closed. After all, it’s something they’ve perfected over decades.
But when it comes to arched frames, investment in new profile bending machinery is needed, not to mention the years of expertise required to perfect the process. It’s a time-consuming and complex manufacturing technique that many fabricators simply aren’t equipped for, meaning that many choose to turn down bespoke and potentially very lucrative jobs because of the headache they bring.
But, thanks to leading arched frame manufacturer, Premier Arches, they don’t have to. The St Helens-based company manufactures and supplies the awkward products that others don’t want to make. This includes arched, angled, gable, circular and entirely bespoke windows and doors, in a range of seven stocked systems, including Residence 9, plus another five non-stocked systems, offering a full service to fabricators, trade counters, installers and local builders, and saving them both time and money.
Established in 2015 by three brothers – Sean, Thomas and Daniel – who were frustrated by the messiness of the arched frame sector, Premier Arches has grown in the past six years, and today serves over 600 customers across the UK. Sean Greenall, the business’ managing director, said: “My brothers and I saw a real gap in the market when it came to arched frames and profile bending: Most PVC fabricators simply don’t have the tools or the expertise for it. So our goal with Premier Arches is to transform an often daunting market into a simple and pain-free process.
“Arched frames quickly led to customers selecting us to manufacture angled and other complex frames too, leaving them to focus on the simpler, faster processes that their efficient factories are built for. When it comes to arched frames, many fabricators manufacture the square sash themselves and outsource the outer frame to a specialist frame bending company. However, we’ve started to see a rise in fabricators turning to us to manufacture the complete product instead.
“We’ve seen more and more fabricators go down this route, thanks to our reliable, hassle-free service, and the fact that we can manufacture frames in a range of seven stocked systems, including Residence 9, plus another five non-stocked systems. We also offer a range of hardware, meaning we can easily match up to the standard frames on the job.”
At Premier Arches, bespoke and complex frames are ‘always accompanied by outstanding customer service’, a principle ingrained in its 20-strong manufacturing team. In addition, the company boasts a self-developed online pricing and ordering platform, making it easy for customers to get instant quotes, place orders and track jobs, eliminating the need for paperwork.
Sean concluded: “From a smooth online pricing and ordering service through to a fully manufactured offering of a wide range of window and door systems, Premier Arches is here to take away those complicated processes, helping you win more lucrative jobs and ultimately boosting your sales. If you’re on the lookout for quality arched and angled frames, and a hassle-free and reliable service, give us a call today, on 01744 451 846 – we’d love to hear from you.” For more information, email info@premierarches.co.uk.
