Made for Trade pre-launched the new Korniche Aluminium Bi-Folding Doors alongside the established and successful Korniche Aluminium Roof Lantern at this year’s FIT Show.

The new bifolding doors welcomed visitors from the Hall 6 entrance in a pavilion style stand, with a further four-leaf door set inside enclosing a space showcasing the new bifolding doors.

Features include: fully assembled doors; pre-drilled mounting holes; pre-gasketed composite bead – doors can be glazed in seconds and de-glazed for replacement units just as fast with a dedicated tool; invisible hinges with no requirement for D handles; sashes up to 1,300 x 2,500; crimped and PUR bonded corners; and PAS 24 as standard.

“Clean aesthetics are delivered with ultra-low thresholds and sill options, no floating mullion on any door set, delivering a clean, uninterrupted sightline, which is further minimised by in-house designed flush combination shoot bolt handles,” the company reported following the show.

Visitors were also interested in developments on the Korniche Roof lantern with the introduction of a screw port cover and aluminium sill, and it will soon be available with a PAS 24 option.

The Korniche Challenge, which pitted different installers against each other in a speed-fitting contest, drew crowds around the Korniche Stand.

High Security Doors left the show £1,000 richer, while Statement Doors left with a prize of £200. A £1,000 cheque was also presented to GM Fundraising.

Made For Trade’s marketing manager Ian Bousfield said: “The FIT Show 2019 has been a watershed for Made for Trade where the Korniche brand came of age in the industry, becoming a true ‘aluminium system’ with the introduction of the Korniche Bi-Folding Door.”
