The art of perfect transparency from Hörmann UK
Hormänn UK have announced an exciting addition to their market leading range of sectional garage doors, the ART 42 Vitraplan which offers an eye-catching blend of transparency and refl ection. Featuring surface- mounted, fl ush-fi tting grey glazing panels the door provides the perfect design choice for exclusive, modern residential architecture. The ART 42 Vitraplan has been developed for the domestic market from a similar Hörmann industrial door which is widely used in high-end car showrooms. It is an elegant aluminium frame sectional door with concealed frame profi les in RAL 9005 Jet black. The large surface-mounted, fl ush-fi tting grey glazing panels provide maximum light creating a modern, showroom style garage door combined with all of the market leading features and benefi ts of a traditional Hörmann sectional door. The glazing panels feature the unique Hörmann DURATEC scratch-resistant fi nish. DURATEC is an innovative surface coating, which protects the glazing panes from scratches and damage caused by cleaning and environmental conditions over the long-term, helping to guarantee a permanently fl awless appearance.

Doors_DPR.indd 1 How roofl ight specifi cation can help deliver the Future Homes Standard earlier
High-quality residential developments are no longer defi ned only by their location and standard of fi nish. Stunning architecture, luxurious interiors and high-end amenities are still expected, of course, but there is something else to add into the mix: sustainability. A new home or high-rise development doesn’t have to be labelled as an “eco home” to be part of the sustainability conversation. Whether driven by the client, the architect, or the two working in collaboration, better standards of energy effi ciency and comfort, along with healthier interiors, are now normal aspirations. The blank canvas of a new project offers the opportunity to deliver much more than the minimum standards required by building regulations. Project teams now routinely look to the promised Future Homes Standard – not due to be implemented until 2025 – as a benchmark for performance. As a component of the building envelope that must balance energy effi ciency with providing natural light and views out, roofl ight specifi cation plays a big part in whether that benchmark is achieved.
