APS wish Harry Corry home furnishings, the second retailer to move into Enniskillen Lakeland’s Retail & Leisure Park, the best of luck for their grand opening.
The first tenant Home Bargains opened in early July. APS were pleased to supply the curtain walling, window and door systems to the glazing contractor on this large project. Looking forward to seeing more photos as more units fill up. Well done to all involved.
Nothing says Pay Day like the APS Pay Day breakfast. Our Payday Breakfasts are guaranteed to put a smile on everyone’s face. Bacon or sausage butties or choose the healthy option porridge and fruit. The staff really appreciate this treat that coincides with receiving pay every month. Thanks to Jonny, Brian, Michelle, Victoria and Kate for posing for photo.
It’s great to hear from Oliver Lamont who has received sponsorship from APS for his racing.
At the start of the summer he collected 4 trophies at the Autotest Drivers Club Dinner – two for 1st in Class and two for 2nd in Class from previous events. Then at the Junction One Autotest, he secured another 1st in Class win, adding another trophy to the collection. 🏆
More recently Oliver competed at the ADC Nutts Corner Autotest where he won the ‘all forward event’ overall by 6 seconds. This means that Oliver now leads the Northern Ireland Junior Autotest Championship by 4 points. Oliver is definitely establishing a reputation for himself in Autotest Competitions, and we sincerely wish him continued success.
The weather didn’t dampen the spirit at Belfast’s Memory Walk on 27th September in Ormeau Park in aid of Alzheimer’s Society. Team APS turned out reliable as ever. We had some craic on the 6k walk and a chance to chat about everything not work related for a change. A morning well spent as we remembered those who are living with the effects of Alzheimer’s and those we have known who are no longer with us. Many in APS have experience on a personal level. APS board matched the funds we raised and a cheque was presented to Alzheimer’s Society for £1200. Thanks to everyone who took part and donated.
APS has provided architectural glazing systems for multiple Applegreen stores, demonstrating our ability to deliver top-notch solutions to companies in the fuel and forecourt retail industry.
When we saw Applegreen Dunshaughlin on M3 Co Meath feature in news releases lately due to its introduction of the first Taco Bell to Ireland we were keen to grab some photos as a great example.
Even though the store isn’t quite open yet, with only days to go, we thank the busy construction team on site who allowed us to take these photos to share. We look forward to posting more photos when everything is completed and the store is open plus indulging in some tacos.
Our systems installed here include ACW curtain walling – 175mm transoms & 200mm mullions plus Solar Shading & ACW040 projection brackets, ACD commercial door, AP200 resi door, AP134 therm+ windows and AFG flush glazing.
APS are pleased to continually be associated with Ulster University BSc Hons Architectural Technology & Management course. Last Friday was an opportunity for the students to display their course projects for a collaboration of advice. Guests are invited from the construction industry who share their experience and expertise individually with the students. Our own Kenny Faulkner has represented APS with the course for over 10 years now.
This year’s attendance was very high and the students each displayed impressive, crafted models of their projects along with work in progress.
Well done to all the Year 4 students for all their efforts. They are now on the final push to complete their BSc Hons course. Keep up the momentum and excellent work!
We are pleased to see another APS installed project nearing completion. This is an apartment project in the centre of Bangor, Co. Down, NI and complements the original Savoy Hotel frontage that remains in place.
The project has seen the installation our AP134 Therm+ polyamide window system and our AP200 Therm+ Polyamide doors system.
The project consists of our window system having the corner windows curved on plan and an Art Deco architectural style with astragal bars applied. They are very impressive and aesthetically pleasing on the curved glass.
The project was installed and certified to “Secure By Design” requirements. Our APS range of systems have been successfully tested to the latest PAS24 security requirements.
APS is proud and excited to continue to sponsor Ethan Faulkner as he sets his sight on the British Sprint Championship this year, a big step up from competing in NI where he has had much success in the short period of time since taking up the sport.
This is a video of best wishes from just a few sponsors including APS Director Chris. It includes some very touching messages and some famous names. We want to wish Ethan the best of luck in this next stage of his racing career
Introducing the new APS fire-rated aluminium door and screen system. A first for an aluminium fire-rated system developed by a Northern Ireland/ROI architectural systems company. Our highly experienced technical team, working in close consultation with leading fire experts have engineered a cutting-edge solution for fire safety offering both thermal and fire protection of up to 60 minutes. Prioritizing public safety, the APS fire-rated door and screen systems are engineered to meet the stringent demands of both professional and residential environments, including office buildings, homes, and apartment complexes. The photo demonstrates we’ve dedicated considerable time and financial resources to rigorous testing and design, ensuring full compliance with all current building legislation and the highest safety standards. In the event of a fire, these systems play a critical role in protecting lives by containing the fire and facilitating safe escape routes, significantly increasing the chances of evacuation of occupants during an emergency. Single Doors & Screens have passed both 60 minute EI:60 and 30 minute EI:30 fire testing (E ~ integrity I ~ Insulation). Double Doors have passed 30 minute fire testing EI:30 Fire Rated Doors
It is rumoured that this recent order for RAL 3002 red RAL 9003 white profile to be powder coated and clipped by our team handling the alu-roller machine is for an avid Liverpool fan. The investment in the aluroller machine to roll aluminium polyamide window & door sections with polyamide strip to help maximise thermal properties has been one of the most significant investments that APS has ever made. It is also one of the busiest departments within the company as it maintains stocks of mill finish aluminium window and door profiles. We also offer the fantastic dual colour service as is the red and white order. Perhaps we will get to see some finished window photos at some stage.
