How we work with builders.
We work directly with builders, developers and architects across Canterbury, and supply joinery throughout the South Island. From your plans we take off quantities, prepare shop drawings for sign-off, and fabricate the full set of thermally broken aluminium windows and doors to suit the design, the site and the H1 energy requirements, all in the one suite, hardware family and colour. Because we design and make everything in-house, you deal with one team from order through to delivery, and we plan fabrication around your dates rather than ours. On new-build and trade jobs your own build team handles installation.
Take-offs and shop drawings
We quantify the joinery from your plans and prepare drawings for architect and builder sign-off, with the schedules and specs your consent and build team need.
H1-compliant by design
Thermally broken frames and Low-E double glazing, specified to meet current New Zealand energy-efficiency requirements, room by room.
Trade-friendly packages
Whole-house pricing for builders and developers, supplied and delivered to your programme for your own team to install.
Scheduled to your build
We plan fabrication around your programme, so the joinery turns up when the site needs it. It isn't sitting around for weeks, and it isn't the thing holding up the build.
Consistent across the build
Every opening in the house shares the same suite, hardware and colour, so there are no mismatches and one point of accountability.
Supply across the South Island
We make everything in Christchurch and deliver throughout the South Island, from Marlborough and Nelson down to Otago and Southland. On new-build and trade work your own team installs.

Yes. We price complete packages for builders and developers rather than opening by opening, and supply them from order through to delivery on site. Talk to us about your pipeline and we'll sort the right arrangement.
Greater Canterbury is home, and we deliver joinery across most of the South Island, from Marlborough and Nelson down to the West Coast, Otago and Southland. On new-build and trade work we supply the joinery and your own build team installs it. Our installation service for inserts and full replacements is Canterbury-based.
That's the point of a package. Once the order and drawings are signed off, we plan fabrication around your build dates, so the joinery is delivered to suit the sequence, ready for your team to install.
Our 5-year workmanship warranty covers the joinery we make, whether we install it or supply it for your own team to fit. Hardware carries manufacturer warranties (typically 2-5 years), the powder-coat finish 15 years (Dulux Duralloy Plus), and glass 10 years against seal failure.
