LCCC Networking Breakfast 

Our marketing team had a great time at the Networking Breakfast hosted by Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council at Lisburn Enterprise Organisation. 

The team enjoyed an engaging and informative presentation “Mastering Influencer Marketing: Small Budget, Big Impact” by Anna Crockard from Digital 24™. 

We’ll definitely put the information gained to good use in the near future

Road Racing Royalty visits APS
APS were delighted to welcome 10xTT winner and international road racer Ian Lougher to our office last week.
As always, Ian made time for the road racing fanatics amongst our staff stopping for a chat and a quick photograph.
Ian was in to look into our popular composite fencing range to enhance his outdoor space.

APS is proud and excited to continue to sponsor Ethan Faulkner as he sets his sight on the British Sprint Championship this year, a big step up from competing in NI where he has had much success in the short period of time since taking up the sport.

This is a video of best wishes from just a few sponsors including APS Director Chris. It includes some very touching messages and some famous names. We want to wish Ethan the best of luck in this next stage of his racing career

Introducing the new APS fire-rated aluminium door and screen system. A first for an aluminium fire-rated system developed by a Northern Ireland/ROI architectural systems company.
Our highly experienced technical team, working in close consultation with leading fire experts have engineered a cutting-edge solution for fire safety offering both thermal and fire protection of up to 60 minutes.
Prioritizing public safety, the APS fire-rated door and screen systems are engineered to meet the stringent demands of both professional and residential environments, including office buildings, homes, and apartment complexes.
The photo demonstrates we’ve dedicated considerable time and financial resources to rigorous testing and design, ensuring full compliance with all current building legislation and the highest safety standards.
In the event of a fire, these systems play a critical role in protecting lives by containing the fire and facilitating safe escape routes, significantly increasing the chances of evacuation of occupants during an emergency.
Single Doors & Screens have passed both 60 minute EI:60 and 30 minute EI:30 fire testing (E ~ integrity I ~ Insulation).
Double Doors have passed 30 minute fire testing EI:30 Fire Rated Doors

It is rumoured that this recent order for RAL 3002 red RAL 9003 white profile to be powder coated and clipped by our team handling the alu-roller machine is for an avid Liverpool fan.  The investment in the aluroller machine to roll aluminium polyamide window & door sections with polyamide strip to help maximise thermal properties has been one of the most significant investments that APS has ever made.  It is also one of the busiest departments within the company as it maintains stocks of mill finish aluminium window and door profiles. We also offer the fantastic dual colour service as is the red and white order.  Perhaps we will get to see some finished window photos at some stage.

If you were attending the Irish Open at Royal County Down in Newcastle this September, we think you will have noticed the new roof of the house next to the Slieve Donard Hotel. We’re confident it would have grabbed the attention of even the most seasoned golf professionals. This stunning sight is thanks to the installation of our APS Classic Slates, which look fantastic alongside other APS products, including Dry Fixed Ridge Kits, Ridge Tiles, Fascia, and Rainwater Products.  Make sure to have a peek next time you are nearby.

We were delighted to welcome Ireland’s First Lady of Country Music Susan McCann this week at APS along with husband Dennis who was looking at some of our range of products.  A good friend of our Grahame Malcolmson pictured here with Sheena and Susan. We really enjoyed meeting them and next time we will have to hear a few songs!

Many happy returns to our long time employee Grahame Malcomson well known and well respected in the marketplace for pvc window and door systems especially in ROI where he is mostly based. Also famous for his range of quality jokes that he is guilty of retelling on many occasions. He was pleasantly recently surprised when our business partners VEKA UK brought a birthday cake along to their meeting. Very kind and thoughtful. Grahame was really delighted. Here he is with Kate McMahon & Chris du Boulay Happy birthday Grahame and no prizes for guessing what age!
