Aluminium is the material of choice for modern commercial entrances in Marks Gate due to its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance.

Our profiles can be finished in any standard RAL colour using durable Toughened Safety Glass (BS EN 12600), ensuring your brand identity is perfectly matched and weather-resistant for years to come.

Glazing & Safety Standards
