Unique launches design classic 2.0
Unique Window Systems is introducing a modern take on a design classic.
The multi-award-winning fabricator of aluminium and UPVC windows, doors and curtain walling has introduced a new aluminium Heritage entrance door.
Mir Patel, Aluminium Operations Manager at Unique, explains: “Our new Heritage door builds on the timeless and geometric aesthetic appeal of the early 20th century Art Deco and Modernist architectural movements.
“It takes what is essentially an iconic design and doesn’t just reinvent it – it actually improves on it.
“As a prime example, the slim frames employed on Heritage Doors are actually much better suited to aluminium compared to steel, which has been used traditionally, because of aluminium’s better strength-to-weight ratio.”
“As a progressive, forward thinking fabricator, our aim is simple.

We want to ensure we always offer our customers products that embrace the latest technology and that meet, or frequently pre-empt, new developments in areas such as legislation, architectural trends and consumer tastes.”
Unique’s new Heritage door offers sightlines of just 51.7mm. This helps to maximise areas of uninterrupted glazing and light transmission.
The door’s design has also been developed to match aluminium windows from the Unique range and is complemented by a dedicated selection of handles and hardware.
In addition, numerous configurations are available. This includes the option of fan and side lights, enabling the creation of a seamless heritage look across a wide range of door openings, sizes and uses.
On top of its stunning aesthetics, Unique’s new Heritage door also delivers some equally attractive functional benefits.
Just one of its many notable performance characteristics is a U-Value of 1.4 w/m2K. This means it complies with Approved Document Part L for refurbishment projects.
“The launch of our new Heritage door reflects Unique’s commitment to continually enhancing and evolving our product range” comments Mir.
