Lister Trade Frames sees Beaumont benefit
Posted on 13/11/2012
Lister Trade Frames is the latest company to add Dempsey Dyer’s inimitable ‘timber look’ Beaumont Window to its suite of products.
Launched earlier this year the ‘Beaumont’ is manufactured using the Deceuninck 2800 PVC-u system and has a patented jointing system designed to replicate that of a timber window.
In a climate where added value products are selling well, it has proved very popular with fabricators and installers searching for originality.
Lister Trade Frames’ Managing Director, Mark Warren, explains why Listers have brought the Beaumont on-board: “We were looking for a window that would more closely imitate the traditional looks of a high quality timber window while offering all the advantages of modern high performance thermally efficient PVCu.
“While we already offer PVCu windows in a wide range of woodgrain foils and solid colour window options, the obvious let down for many customers are the welded joints that just don’t give a traditional craft-worked look.
“The Beaumont not only uses mechanical jointed transoms and mullions, but even the outer frame and the sash are also mechanically joined producing a highly realistic timber like effect.
“It is this that really makes the difference – The Beaumont delivers the great looks of high class traditional timber windows without the high price tag.” Mark also explains that the Listers team were particularly impressed by the technical research that had gone into the product and the fact that Dempsey Dyer had developed a patented joining and strengthening procedure to ensure high-performance and a long service life.
On dealing with Dempsey Dyer itself, Mark comments: “We have been very impressed with the enthusiasm and professionalism of Dempsey Dyer.
“They seem to be a “Belt n Braces” company who won’t compromise on quality and performance. That’s just the type of partner Listers like to work with.”
Dempsey Dyer’s Managing Director Peter Dyer comments: “Lister Trade Frames are one of the UK’s best known fabricators and it is a great endorsement that they have chosen to stock the Beaumont window and make it available to their trade customers.
“The Beaumont is changing perceptions around PVC-u and is the ideal product for homeowners who like the look of timber but maybe can’t afford it or have concerns about maintenance issues.”
The Pontefract based manufacturer recently celebrated its sixth consecutive record month of sales of the Beaumont Window; and during this period also recorded their best ever day of Beaumont sales.
To further increase the authentic ‘timber look’, the product can be finished in the full range of Deceuninck’s high-end Deuctone range and both standard and foiled finishes are currently available; whilst a wealth of classy ironmongery can also be incorporated within the Beaumont.
Lister Trade Frames is based in Stoke-on-Trent and recently reported a flurry of impressive trading figures and is currently running at a 5.6% increase in business compared to last year.
