All the hard work certainly paid off as the End of Academic Year Show event at Ulster University School of Architecture was hailed as a resounding success by the high number in attendance. The work on show was produced to an exceptionally impressive and high standard. 

APS is proud to be closely associated with Ulster University School of Architecture through Contracts Manager Kenny Faulkner who gives guest lectures through the year. APS presented their annual award for best in “Design Creativity in the BIM module”.  This year’s winner was a well-deserved John McCamphill, seen here receiving his award and prize from our Kenny Faulkner.  Congratulations John.

APS are pleased to announce the development of a slimline screen and door system for internal use.  This SL50 System offers the designer a retro look with a modern twist. It offers exceptional attention to detail with quality products used throughout.  Designed to be fabricated locally with one of the most recyclable materials on the planet.  Aluminium helps to give this system a positive environmental footprint.  The development and design of this system was part of APS winning a prestigious award and receiving support from UK Research and Innovation who identified this product as an exceptional proposal that offered an exciting alternative to this sector of the market.

APS Aluminium Lift & Slide Patio Doors are renowned for being relatively simple to manufacture and install and this is why they are loved by fabricators and installers all over the country.  They are also a very modern and contemporary addition to any home or business.  When we called at an approved fabricator this week it was great to see another job being processed, this time for an apartment building by the sea at Portrush.  How lovely to look at the Atlantic through one of these.

We offer complete technical advice and guidance to our customers and are always on hand when they are in need of guidance during fabrication and installation of our systems.  Training on all systems is organised by Technical Manager Peter Cummins in our in-house training workshop located at Greenwood Business Park or Warehouse 5 as we familiarly call it and it is situated just across the road from headquarters .  This photo is an example and was taken recently when Peter was training a new architectural customer in fabrication of our extremely popular AP400 Lift & Slide Doors.

A very warm welcome to Philip Osbourne (right) who is our new Technical Sales Manager. He is pictured here with Architectural Sales Director Alan Denver. Philip will work alongside the rest of the Architectural team to strengthen APS’ all-Ireland sales. We wish Philip all the very best and hope he enjoys his new role with us!
