A picture speaks a thousand words

Carol Sherlock, from aluminium fabricator Hepworth, shares a recent residential new build project which is said to be sparking the imagination of contractors, installers and homeowners across the North West and Yorkshire.

As fabricators, we’re often only involved in part of a project, especially when it’s a large new build rather than a refurbishment, replacement, or extension.

We may get to see the overall architectural specification or building regs plans and indeed, here at Hepworth, we love to contribute at this stage with ideas of what is and what isn’t possible in aluminium.

But then often, our doors and windows disappear off into their new homes to be enjoyed for years to come. Anyone who has tried to get photography of their doors and windows in situ to use for endorsements or case studies, will be familiar with the challenge of taking pictures on building sites, or trying to remember to go back often months later to get the perfect shot of the final installation.

But imagine if you could see the whole house build project from start to finish. Imagine if your doors and windows define the end aesthetic. Well, that’s precisely what we’ve been able to do in Mirfield, near Wakefield on this self-build where the developer bought the property as an investment to do up and sell. We wanted to share the stunning results of SAS Seniors aluminium doing what it does well in a home now on the market for £850,0000.

We love a challenge

Hepworth has made our name by being an expert in the field of manufacturing aluminium doors and windows.

As a result, our customer base includes architects, specifiers and installers who are looking for that something special that they know we can reliably provide, whether for the domestic or commercial market.

We’re here to help and as these pictures show, we love a challenge! Just because something can be more complex, it doesn’t mean you should avoid it and in fact, with the right partner, you can reap far higher rewards with better sales conversions and profit margins too.

Hepworth is committed to continuing the strategic growth we’ve enjoyed over recent years which runs in parallel with investment to create a sustainable business. We’re now looking for new customers who want to offer a choice of aluminium systems with the backup of a knowledgeable team. We’re keen to open up the world of aluminium and the benefits it can bring to home improvement door and window installers and retailers who are not yet involved.

We recently opened our showroom which you are welcome to visit, or why not take a tour of our recently expanded manufacturing facility? We would love to hear from you.
