A property in Eastry, Kent, has undergone a sensitive upgrade thanks to the addition of Sheerline’s Classic Heritage Door. The project is the result of a collaboration between fabricators Rhino Aluminium and installers DirectFix Glazing Contractors.
Due to the age and location of the property, authentic heritage styling was a must. The homeowners opted for the doors to be finished in Brun 2650 Sable – Metallic Texture to compliment the zinc cladding. This consistency creates an architecturally refined aesthetic in keeping with the area.
Steven Elliott, Director, DirectFix Glazing Contractors, said: “I’ve worked with Sheerline products a lot – they’re engineered so well, and I can see the thought that goes into them.”
When asked about the project, Jordan King, Rhino Aluminium’s Order Processing Manager, Production Controller, and CAD Designer, said: “The Classic Heritage Door has been our standout product. Customers love its slim sightlines, traditional styling, and modern performance. It’s the perfect blend of heritage and innovation.”
Since becoming a Sheerline fabricator three years ago, the partnership between Sheerline and Rhino Aluminium has flourished. This is in part because both company’s values align, placing an emphasis on innovation, sustainability, UK manufacturing, and high-quality products.
Jordan continued: “Working with Sheerline has been a great experience from day one. Their products are innovative, well-engineered, and they’re supported by a team that understands what fabricators need – it’s a partnership that makes a real difference to our business.”
As a system designed with fabricators and installers in mind, working with Sheerline has provided Rhino Aluminium with tangible benefits. Jordan explained: “Our customers get premium, installer-friendly products with outstanding thermal efficiency and modern styling.”
For Rhino Aluminium, the core Sheerline products the company supplies alongside the Classic Heritage Door are the S1 Roof Lantern, the Prestige Lift & Slide Patio Door, and the Prestige window system. The latter was recently specified for a commercial project in Ramsgate.
Jordan said: “We recently supplied the Prestige system for two blocks of flats on the former gas works site local to us in Ramsgate. The system’s strength, thermal performance, and design flexibility made it the perfect choice for this large-scale development.”
