VBH, the company behind the Greenteq brand, says it has forged ‘a strong reputation’ as a supplier to specialist patio door manufacturers.
The Greenteq range includes hardware and furniture solutions for aluminium bi-fold and lift/slide patio doors and, most recently, PVC-U inline sliding doors.
VBH adds that the Greenteq Clearslide lock has been well received by manufacturers of Deceuninck, Kömmerling, Rehau and Veka PVC-U sliders since its launch.
The lock and keep are manufactured from hardwearing stainless steel, and both are covered by a 10-year guarantee.
Eight sliding hooks and two anti-lift pins ensure that Clearslide locks provide a very strong connection to the frame. The lock meets the requirements of all relevant security standards and is covered by Kitemark KM727991.
As a consequence of this, VBH have added Clearslide to the approved hardware list for its Q-secure Premium consumer guarantee. This means that Q-secure installers can offer a guarantee of up to £8,000 on their sliding doors.
Clearslide can be operated by the Greenteq standard Alpha patio P-handle with its 10-year guarantee, or by the Coastline stainless steel handle set that is supplied with a 25-year surface guarantee. The handles are interchangeable.
VBH business development director, Rob Norman, said; “We do great business with Clearslide on the four profiles that we launched with, and have had many requests from users of other PVC-U systems who want to use the lock on their doors.
“We’re busy developing further solutions that will satisfy these requests and expand Clearslide’s reach. Watch this space.”
