What an Experience!

From the time of our first visit to your premises we felt comfortable with your product. It was a product just as we had hoped and envisaged for our new kitchen extension – double glazed, frameless glass doors to cover a 7.310 meter opening ! Until then we were not sure if it was possible.
When the 9 doors were first installed the overall affect was more than we could have hoped for, just exactly what we wanted – on time – in budget and wonderful to look at. After a technical hitch with the locking system which was rectified in a short time , the project was completed to our satisfaction.
All your team obviously take a pride in their work, which is much appreciated. A brilliant product that we wish you good luck with in the future. A very satisfied customer. Thank you all.

Installation of four double-glazed doors, internal to a large bay window arrangement, top floor flat.
Initial contact was by email and a quote came back within a couple of days. More than can be said for some of the other companies we contacted about similar products. We visited the factory for a demonstration and were also put in touch with a relatively local previous customer whom we went to see, to look at the product in the ‘real world’ so to speak and to discuss their experience with the company. This was a very positive visit and we decided to go ahead with ordering. After some negotiation on price (this is not a cheap product, but you get what you pay for!) the order was placed, a site survey was carried out, and we awaited a call for an installation date. This came much sooner than anticipated which was great. On the installation day, the three installers arrived on time at 08:00 and they were done by 16:00. It took twice as long as anticipated due to them having to drill out concrete to lay the track. There was not one grumble about this, they were all polite and friendly guys. Quite a lot of mess was made by the installation, mainly due to drilling into concrete, but the guys were careful to clean up after themselves as best they could.

“Visiting the FGC factory before a site viewing was the best decision we made.
Very few of the reviewers make any mention of the apparent simplicity that disguises the cleverness and ingenuity in this way of dealing with a large size glazed opening. At the factory the finer details behind the design were explained, and the level of engineering precision became apparent.
A later site viewing and meeting an existing owner only further confirmed what we had seen at the factory, and reinforced our belief that FGC was absolutely the only product suitable for this house.
Since the installation, a dramatic improvement in insulation and noise attenuation was immediately apparent when the window is closed, but the ease with which the window can be opened up and stowed discreetly to one side is quite breath taking and magical.
If you have considered FGC and have read this far, I urge you to contact them and see for yourself this brilliant design.

May I ask you for a review on how we performed? – all very good except that it took a month to get the correct size of glass doors after the wrong sized ones turned up on initial installation – good job it wasn’t winter or might have been having a different conversation. I appreciate this was an error at the factory. In response to my initial query– Paul fitted a locking handle to the outside of the door on the second visit which helps. We just need to solve the air gaps when the door is not sealed.
How were we from initial contact (were we polite)? – Paul and Ricky were very helpful, polite and knowledgeable – please pass on my thanks to them both.
Arranging installation (were we on time and on schedule) – Both visits on time for 08:00
Were we clean and tidy? – yes
And finally are you pleased with our doors (would you Recommend us)? – Yes –  I’m very pleased so far – look great and of good quality, feel solid and safe. I’ll know better though after a few months of constant use from the family…….. In terms of the competition – you are slightly more expensive than a traditional tri fold door. We decided to use you as we were already converts to glass curtains. And we needed the flexibility in the way your doors split and open. I think the majority of people need convincing for some reason.
I have an outstanding query ref the sealing of the doors when the handle has not been turned. Paul is developing an idea to help me – I’d really appreciate it if Paul can come back to me as soon as he can. The glass curtains are in constant use all day and my family are not good at going through the doors and then turning the handle to seal….. – Paul knows the details. In terms of making a difference – these glass curtains have replaced some single glazed glass curtains – and there is already a difference in the evening if the temp drops outside and we have them shut. Family getting used to them . Cat is freaked out by them, nobody has run into them yet….

Dear Frameless Glass Curtains,
I would thoroughly recommend anyone to use your company. Your product is excellent and the installers were delightful: on time, tidy, quick, cheerful. An initial problem was dealt with immediately. The doors have changed how I feel about living in my small house; they have made the sitting room feel double the size as the walled garden now looks like a second room. Everyone admires them.
There you are, my official honestly felt recommendation which you are welcome to use as you will.
However the immediate aftermath of the first installation was not pleasant. I had a very defensive call from one member of staff and a belligerent email from another; I thought I was dealing with a bunch of cowboy installers and called a solicitor. Paul’s intervention changed my mind. I would really urge you to introduce another signing element: when the dimensions have been taken send a detailed plan to the client to be approved and signed.
I wish you all luck – you deserve it.
Kind regards, Evvy

Just a note to let you know how delighted we are with the sliding folding glazed panels installed by your firm at the rear of our house. Friends come into our kitchen now and are just amazed at how the same space has been transformed and opened up, simply by the addition of your glazed panels, providing a panoramic view looking out onto the garden. During warm summer days it was (and still is) such a joy to slide and park the panels to one side, bringing the garden into the kitchen dining area. We have a separate dining room in the house also, but haven’t in fact used it since the day your windows were installed! Nobody wants to leave the newly created bright space with a full view of the garden and changing seasons, now almost making the other living rooms redundant. Downside is that I now have to labour away and keep the garden trim, tidy and colourful every weekend!
I must also take this opportunity to remark on the efficiency with which the panels were installed by two of your very pleasant and cheerful fitters, who arrived at exactly the appointed time on the agreed date as advised when we first ordered the panels. They worked diligently, ensuring the panels were up and running in the shortest possible time, all as per the agreed time schedule and budget, and left the place spotless on completion.
I’m quite sure that the overall effect, backed up by our enthusiastic demonstations of how they work, will result in a few more additions to your order book! We certainly have no hesitation in recommending your system.

When it has been sunny we have made full use of the new doors and they have transformed our relationship with the outdoor space.
The design and colour of the doors has modernised the look of the back of the house especially now we do not have lashings of uPVC everywhere.
We were very happy with the service from start to finish. It was refreshing to meet a boss of a company who was honest and clear in his explanations to us and did not go for the hard sell and other tactics that so often blight the industry. He let the excellent product do the talking.
The process from start to finish was great and the installation was completed very professionally in a very short time.
We would be happy to recommend the company to any family or friends and would be happy for potential customers to come and see the doors.
I am happy to have my comments above included on any promotional material should you wish.
