Yale and Heritage Trade Frames are celebrating a year of partnership since the trade frame fabricator became an official partner for SensCheck, Yale’s range of integrated smart door and window sensors.

The year has seen Heritage Trade Frames build its own showroom and training area that showcase the benefits of SensCheck.

Paul Culshaw, managing director of Heritage Trade Frames, commented: “SensCheck is a fantastic product and we’ve had brilliant feedback on it from our customers. One of them, Walkers Windows, now includes SensCheck-compatible locking systems as standard on all its PVC-U casement, flush window, residential, and French doors – a testament to its popularity.

“Our new showroom and training centre enables visitors to interact with the products and fully appreciate the benefits that SensCheck delivers.”

With Yale SensCheck, homeowners are notified via the Yale Home app if their doors are open or closed, locked or unlocked, and whether their windows are in the night vent position. The range is also compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, enabling homeowners to ask a variety of commands, such as “Alexa, is my front door locked?” and “Alexa, is my bedroom window open?”

Paul Gravell, sales director at Yale, commented: “Heritage Trade Frames is one of the largest and most-trusted fabricators of PVC, composite doors, and aluminium windows and doors in the industry. They are ideally placed to bring our SensCheck range to trade installers. We’re therefore thrilled to see the partnership thriving and look forward to further successes in the future.”
