Architects

From planning and design to construction and delivery, we can support you in meeting the requirements of your project. Benefit from our expert knowledge of BIM objects, sustainability, aesthetics, functionality and regulatory compliance so you achieve a smooth flow of people, goods, and vehicles.

When aesthetics meet functionality

You do not need to compromise on your building's look. You and your client's vision should be the red thread running through every element of the building design. It includes the products you specify. Our architect consultants are committed to helping you make sure that your specifications – and your vision – make it through to the final building.

Complete your design with BIM objects

Building Information Modeling (BIM) enables you to visualize a project’s physical and functional characteristics. Whether it is staircases, windows, or doors, BIM archives every detail and shows your client precisely what they can expect from the products specified in their building. To support architects in the building design phase, we offer you our free BIM objects for automatic doors, industrial doors, high-speed doors and loading dock equipment. The BIM library will continue to grow as more products from our comprehensive portfolio are added.

Openings Studio

Create and visualize 3D doors, frames and hardware – and then modify their parameters for use in design, construction and facility management. Openings Studio is our full-featured, web-based suite of BIM software tools.

Compliance - always meet the rules and regulations

Satisfying building regulations is a crucial but meticulous part of any project. Working with suppliers armed with up-to-date local compliance knowledge and a good overview of what is to come makes it easier for you to be sure your specifications go above and beyond the requirements. Our architect consultants work with you to ensure your specified entrances satisfy and exceed all local requirements. And with a service agreement in place, you can be confident they will continue to do so throughout your building’s lifecycle.

Sustainable buildings

Today, it is more important than ever to design and build environmentally responsible and resource-efficient buildings to fulfill the growing needs of individuals and communities. We work with you to help specify solutions that contribute to creating buildings with a low carbon footprint that are also cost-effective to run.
