Nine Zero Timber Windows and Doors has achieved Secured By Design (SBD) accreditation.

According to Nine Zero, SBD accreditation means its timber products not only meet but exceed the rigorous security standards expected in building projects, while offering a competitive edge for trade professionals, architects, and specifiers.

While the industry is acquainted with SBD, Nine Zero says that by adding the accolade and stringent criteria to its advanced CNC manufacturing processes, FSC-certified sustainable timber solutions, exceptional quality products, expertise and advice – it is setting a new standard ‘in a rapidly evolving and highly competitive market’.

“Achieving SBD accreditation is a significant milestone for Nine Zero, in an equally significant time,” says company director, Steve Winscott.

“At a moment when building regulations and consumer demands are progressing at pace, adding the SBD stamp of approval to our portfolio proves we’re ready for the challenges ahead. Today’s trade professionals, architects, and specifiers need compliant solutions that add real value to their projects – and homeowners expect high security as a given.

“Working closely and tirelessly with SBD means Nine Zero can offer the powerful combination of secure design, sustainable materials, energy efficiency and beautiful, bespoke craftsmanship that is built to last.”
