So not only do they provide you with a window of stunning appearance, but you also have the added benefit of modern-day performance and practicality that you expect from PVCu.

With a standard palette of 17 colours, which can be on the outside, inside or both sides of a window or door, the ADVANCE 70 flush sash windows provide you with a range of traditional colour options.
Gleaming white windows will always be popular fit for many property styles, but colours like Chartwell Green, Agate Grey and Cream really do add that extra bit of character to a traditional styled home. Alternatively, Irish Oak, Mountain Oak and Golden Oak give you a more traditional wood grained effect to truly replicate their timber alternatives. Adding Georgian bar or lead can also add to the stunning appearance of flush sash windows.
The amazing thing about ADVANCE 70 flush sash windows is that they work just as well with your modern homes. When you combine them with the more contemporary colour options like Ulti-Matt Black, Slate Grey, Hazy Grey and the ever-popular Anthracite Grey, you can really add a distinctive and modern look to your home.

ADVANCE 70 – Secure, Thermally Efficient & Elegant
When choosing new windows and doors for your home, there are many initial design aspects to consider. Colour, configuration and style will undoubtedly add kerb appeal and elegance to your property. However, there are a further two key qualities in security and thermal performance that are just as, if not more vital, when searching for new windows and doors. This is why you need to choose a window and door profile system that ticks those all-important boxes.
ADVANCE 70 WINDOWS & DOORS
The ADVANCE 70 System is a PVCu window and door system that ultimately provides you with a plethora of technical, practical and aesthetical benefits that you would come to expect from a modern product. Of course, the aesthetics of the product must compliment the style, period and location of your home, whether that be down to the colour, configuration or design of the windows and doors.
Coloured PVCu windows and doors have become extremely popular, as homeowners look to add that distinctiveness to their homes. With a standard palette of 17 colours, which can be on the outside, inside or both sides of a window or door, the ADVANCE 70 System provides a range of modern and traditional colour options. Whether you’re looking for the contemporary colour shades of Ulti-Matt Black, Anthracite Grey or Agate Grey or the authentic wood grained finishes of Mountain Oak, Irish Oak or Rosewood, there’s an effect to suit your home and surrounding environment.
When it comes to the configuration and style of new windows and doors, there are a number of options and ancillaries available, all designed to suit an array of property styles. The ADVANCE 70 System has a number of window and door solutions that compliment modern, traditional and period styled homes. For example, you can have windows with Georgian bar, sash horns or lead to replicate a certain period; tilt and turn windows for easy maintenance, where external access is limited; and flush sash windows that imitate their timber equivalent, which work so well in both modern and traditional homes.
Looking for a door to give that grand entrance? Or maybe panoramic or sliding doors, to open your home to the outside? Well, there are plenty of options to suit your home and your lifestyle. You can have the durability and robustness of a composite door, the versatility and practicality of a French door or the simplistic and classical appearance of a sliding patio door. Why not add that real ‘wow’ factor with EASi-FOLD doors, which are the innovative and revolutionary alternative to bi-fold doors. What makes these even more amazing is that each pane of glass moves individually along a track, pivots and swings alongside the master door.
SECURE & THERMALLY EFFICIENT
Whilst the appearance of new windows and doors are of major importance in keeping with the character and look of your home, it is vitally important that they also improve the security and the efficiency of the building. ADVANCE 70 windows and doors come with an enhanced security option, tested to PAS 24 and Secured by Design specification and standards.
This makes them extremely secure, meeting the rigorous testing requirements and the official police security initiative. They are also Building Regulation Document Q compliant for enhanced security, therefore giving you complete confidence and peace of mind when it comes to replacement of new build projects. More importantly, protecting your family and home from unwanted visitors.
Improving the thermal performance of buildings continues to be an important factor, helping to not only reduce energy consumption and energy bills, but also in regards to reducing the impact on the environment. With legislative changes forthcoming, mainly to Building Regulations Document L and the incoming Future Homes Standard, windows and doors can play a major part in improving the overall thermal efficiency of your home.
The thermal performance of windows and doors are measured by their ‘U’ Value, which is the rate of transfer of heat through a structure. ADVANCE 70 System window and door solutions have been simulated with specific glass specifications to meet not only the existing requirements but also the impending Future Homes Standard. What makes this system more beneficial for the homeowner is that a ‘U’ Value of 1.2 W/m²K can be achieved with standard double-glazed units, making them a more cost-effective solution than its triple glazed counterpart. This can be improved further with a triple-glazed units ‘U’ Value of 1.0 W/m²K and increased sound insulation.
DESIGN YOUR OWN WINDOWS AND DOORS
Taking all of the above in to consideration, it can be very difficult to envisage how they may look in your home. As the homeowner, how do you know if a particular design or colour will complement the style of your home?

ADVANCE 70 – Design Your Own Windows and Doors!
When you are looking to upgrade your existing windows and doors, it can be very difficult to envisage how they may look in your home. Certain designs, colours and combinations may not entirely compliment the style, period or location of your home. Modern PVCu windows and doors now offer more designs, colours and options than ever before, providing you with a multitude of choices. As the homeowner, how do you know if a particular design or colour will compliment the style of your home?
One of the UK’s leading PVCu windows and door profile system company’s, Selecta Systems, have recently launched a website entirely focused on the homeowners needs. www.advance70.co.uk provides a wealth of information and guidance regarding the Birmingham based extruders window and doors solutions.

When you consider that you are investing a large sum of money when upgrading your windows and doors, it’s only right that you are able to visualise how they will fit in to the make-up of your home.

Modern Doors – A Lifestyle Choice
The developments in door design, over the last few years, have truly whet the appetite of the homeowner as they seek to improve the versatility and kerb appeal of their home. Selecta Systems Marketing Manager, Mark Walker, describes how the advancement in doors has led to them becoming more of a lifestyle choice and design statement.
What we should remember, first and foremost, is that an entrance door to any home has to serve three main purposes; to act as a welcome to the homeowner, family and friends, to keep unwanted visitors out and also to protect the property from inclement weather. However, homeowners are now looking for more from their doors, with greater expectations on styles and colours, as they look to not only enhance kerb appeal, improve the space and light in their home, but they also need to fit in with the homeowners lifestyle.
The events of the last 18 months or so has certainly demonstrated this, as the home and garden improvement boom gripped the nation. With restrictions on movement and more time spent within the home, people have been paying more attention to their property, spending more time in their gardens and it has generally changed the way they live. There is certainly more of an appreciation of the home and garden as homeowners look to add that ‘wow’ factor to their home or garden improvement project.
One of the greatest appeals of modern doors, on top of improved security and thermal performance, is colour choice. This has now given homeowners the opportunity to create a bespoke entrance to their home or garden that sits comfortably into the style, period and location of their property. So, whether it’s a classic Chartwell Green, Cream or wood grained effect or a modern Anthracite Grey, Black or smooth effect, there’s a comprehensive colour palette now available to blend into their home and make a style or design statement.
Homeowners have also a newfound desire to create a glass wall and panoramic view they are proud of and comfortable to live with – almost becoming a lifestyle choice. The opportunity to open up their living space and create large glazed walls is appealing, particularly when extending properties or when looking to open up the home to the outdoors.
The popularity of garden rooms, garden offices, summer houses and the proverbial man-cave have increased during these times as homeowners make use of their garden space, whether for work, relaxation or entertaining purposes. The style, colour and design of doors chosen during these projects vary in how the space is used and depending on its purpose and style. Speaking from a personal level, I’ve also caught the home and garden improvement bug! I’ve added my own man-cave / pub shed to my garden, where I installed our Advance 70 Anthracite Grey French doors to my build, providing me with a secure, thermally efficient and elegant entrance to my project.
So, whether it’s standard single leaf and French doors, sliding panoramic patio, bi-fold or Selecta’s EASi-FOLD doors, it now means that the type of door you choose can now be an integral part of your everyday life, be a design statement and add that elusive ‘wow’ factor to your home or garden build. With all these latest developments in doors, they are no longer seen as just an entrance to your property or build. They’ve become more than just a door. A chic choice to fit in with your newfound lifestyle, a security option to protect their family and home and an astute decision to improve energy performance and reduce energy bills. Modern doors are now a product that the fashion and technical conscious consumer is ready to invest in, open up their living space and create that grand entrance to their home or garden build.

Selecta – A Grand Entrance!
With the emergence of a number of TV programmes, like Grand Designs, these have whet the appetite of the home improvement customer whilst enhancing the appeal of creating a grand entrance to their homes. Selecta Systems Sales Director, Andy Green, talks about how doors have evolved, from being just a door, as fabricators and installers take advantage and look forward to opening up new doors of opportunity.
The entrance to any home serves three main purposes; to act as a welcome to the homeowner, family and friends, to keep unwanted visitors out and also to protect the property from inclement weather. The latter two have improved considerably over the years, with PAS 24 and Secured by Design standards, whilst energy ratings have set the mould when it comes to thermal performance. Security, thermal performance and weather performance are now a given and are expected, but for the homeowner, expectations have grown as they look about enhancing kerb appeal and providing that wow factor.
Long gone are the days when a panelled PVCu door, available in White, Mahogany or Golden Oak, were suffice to satisfy the market. The number of door options and styles has grown considerably, thus giving the home owner greater choice. This has also created a line of new businesses offering just doors, such is the appeal and consumer demand, as the door market continues to grow.
One of the greatest appeals of modern doors is colour choice, as this now gives homeowners the opportunity to really create a bespoke and grand entrance to their home, their own personal touch, setting them apart from neighbouring properties. Combined with a comprehensive range of door styles, glass designs, hardware and furniture options, entrance doors have become more than just an add-on, they are an in demand commodity driven by the homeowners desire to create an entrance they are proud of and comfortable to live with.
To assist fabricators within this keenly fought market, Selecta have exclusively launched to our fabricators a composite door kit, comprising of a pre-routed slab, TriSys glazing cassette, choice of locks, hardware and furniture with glass options, all packaged up ready for the fabricator to hang in our own standard Advance 70 door frame. This improves delivery, cost effectiveness and stock holding, plus providing greater control over efficiencies and quality. This, we believe, provides fabricators with a far more effective solution to supply both the trade and retail customer and take advantage of a growth market.
The same can be said for panoramic sliding door solutions as homeowners look to create their own grand design. The opportunity to open up their living space and create large glazed walls is appealing, particularly when extending properties. The patio door is going through a renaissance period, whilst the introduction of swing and slide panoramic doors, like the EASi-FOLD Doors, have captured the imagination of the home improvers. The innovative and revolutionary EASi-FOLD Doors are an alternative to a bi-fold door and are appropriately named because of the simplicity of operation, with each sash sliding independently and folding in to place alongside the master door. It’s these kind of innovations that give the home improvement market a new and fresh approach to standard offerings as consumers look for the latest advancements in pioneering product design to improve their home and lifestyle.
Doors are no longer an add-on to a property. They’ve become more than just a door. A chic choice to fit in with their lifestyle. A security option to protect their family and home. A thermally efficient decision to reduce energy bills. They’re a product that the fashion and technical conscious consumer is ready to invest in and create that grand entrance to their home.

Energy Efficiency – What Next?
Selecta Systems Technical Manager, Richard Bent, looks into the future on what and how it could all change with energy efficient windows and doors in properties and why we should be looking in to providing consumers with more cost effective solutions and real value for money, especially in the replacement market.
The technical performance and specification of window and door systems has improved dramatically over the last few years as window and door solutions evolve on the back of the media pressure of climate control, industry statutory and regulatory requirements and consumer demand in relation to the ever increasing costs of energy supply. These factors have driven window and door system innovation and design during this period and I can only see these contributing to further product innovation over the next 5 years or so. However, consumer demand within the replacement market will not only be for energy efficient products, but for more cost effective solutions in being able to deliver those savings with a guaranteed financial return on their investment.
Replacing windows and doors within a home is amongst one of the larger investment renovations that a consumer will undertake on their property and will be undertaken to improve the security, thermal performance and aesthetics of their property. Adding PAS 24 / Secured By Design windows and doors is a given for improving security and aesthetics and looks are in the eye of the beholder but thermal performance is a different animal altogether!
Sales and marketing drives point to fabricators and consumers requiring A++ ratings and triple glazed windows and doors to improve the thermal efficiency of properties and reduce energy bills. However, this may not be the most cost effective solution where the cost may far outweigh the savings. It may also have effects on the performance of the building as a whole i.e. condensation. High relative humidity levels and a lack of air movement are two contributing factors to condensation and so having energy efficient windows can create further issues in stabilizing the temperature within a property, thus further outlay on temperature control methods or heaven forbid opening windows and doors to allow a flow through of air movement!
You have to ask yourself the question, does offering an A++ window have any real major performance improvements and savings against cost benefits to a consumer, over a standard A rated window or even a B or C? As a consumer I’d certainly like to know and have greater visibility on what the ‘extra’ outlay and potential savings are for the higher rated option against a standard A rated window. It should not simply be about trying to provide a window or door solution that achieves the highest rating, but we should be giving greater prominence in the ‘cost effectiveness’ achievement factor to the fabricator, installer and more importantly, the consumer. At the end of the day, current requirements only dictate that a C rating or above is required and the jump to an A rated window does not provide a large leap in potential energy savings.
I can however see the current C rated requirement being upgraded to a mandatory A rated obligation for all replacement windows and doors within the next few years. This would be a sensible approach as I believe that a large percentage of fabricators and installers are already installing A rated windows and doors already.
Innovation, and especially the thermal performance of products, has progressed considerably in just a few years, so what next without ‘over engineering’ a product just for the sake of achieving a higher rating? There must be a ‘cut-off’ point where the “efficiency” reaches a level that it could be detrimental to the building fabric and the whole cost against benefit of installing the windows or door is no longer pertinent.
That’s why we here at Selecta have retained our company ethos to provide fabricators and consumers with the most innovative, proficient and cost effective energy efficient window and door solutions.

Advance 70 EASi-FOLD Doors Pass PAS 24!
The demand for a PVCu panoramic door solution that ticks all the boxes has seen a host of alternatives enter the market over the last few years or so, but none have entered the fray with as much of a stir as the innovative and revolutionary Advance 70 EASi-FOLD Doors. Selecta Systems Sales Director, Andy Green and Marketing Manager, Mark Walker, discuss the recent PAS 24 certification, the impact of EASi-FOLD Doors on the market and why they tick all the boxes when it comes to fabricators, installers and consumers.
Andy explains, “During the development process we worked very closely with VBH and Invisifold in ensuring that the hardware was specifically adapted to suit our Advance 70 System. This was of major importance and to ensure that all avenues were covered from fabrication, installation and operation. We didn’t see the value of offering a universal set of hardware, we wanted the hardware to be Advance 70 specific, tried and tested. This process may have taken longer than expected but it had to be right to ensure that operation was smooth and effortless, installation simple and that the doors were fabricator friendly – an ethos that Selecta has always adhered to when designing and launching new systems.”
“This pragmatic and idealistic approach, we feel, has paid dividends with the EASi-FOLD Doors not only catching the imagination of fabricators whom are looking to offer something different to consumers, but also in the smoothness of obtaining enhanced security PAS 24 certification without any obstacles, modifications or indicative testing. This, I believe, is justification for the time spent in the development stage of ensuring that the hardware was Advance 70 specific. We were proud to receive recognition of this achievement during the first day of the FIT Show with BSi presenting Selecta with our PAS 24 certificate for the EASi-FOLD Doors.”
Andy continues, “Fabricator and installer friendly EASi-FOLD Doors provide consumers with a panoramic door solution that is secure, effortless in operation whilst ingenious in their design and aesthetic appeal.”
The Advance 70 EASi-FOLD Doors are supported by a marketing and customer support package of which fabricators are free to use as part of their marketing campaigns. Mark clarifies what is available as part of this package.
“With the Advance 70 EASi-FOLD Doors, we felt that only providing brochures and supporting literature was not enough to show off the true capabilities and operation of the doors. Flat images don’t give consumers a real insight in to how the doors operate and so we decided that providing a sales video would be far more appealing to fabricators to show off the pioneering panoramic doors to consumers. Through video consumers get to appreciate the smooth operation of individual sliding sashes, effortlessly gliding along the track, lock in to place, pivot and fold with ease.”
“With the added capability to have the video branded with their logo and contact details, it has enabled customers to use it on their website and social media channels, as well as being used as part of their presentations to customers. Customer branded product sales and promotional videos form an important part of our long term marketing strategy, as we provide further backing in ensuring fabricators are armed with the necessary sales support tools to promote our range of products.”
Mark states, “Many customers have already embraced this opportunity to have branded marketing videos, with feedback very complimentary and reports of an increase in customer sales on the back of this advancement in our marketing and sales support service. We’ve also provided a ‘hints and tips’ video for installers of the EASi-FOLD Doors which is available on our YouTube Channel, SelectaTV.”
A pioneering panoramic door solution, Advance 70 EASi-FOLD Doors provide fabricators with a modern and revolutionary option to a bi-fold door that deliver PAS 24 certification, effortless operation and innovative design all from a fabricator friendly system.
