Window & Door Installations for Local Authorities & Housing Associations

Sidey’s extensive experience and expertise makes us the first choice for delivering window and door installations for local authorities and housing associations.

Framework

Sidey are part of a number of Frameworks that offer assurances to local authorities and housing associations when choosing a partner for window and door projects. We understand how vital it is for local authorities and housing associations to show transparency of their decision-making processes, and the below frameworks make it quicker and easier for them to find partners for uPVC and timber windows and external doors.

  • Number one for best quality windows and doors on SPA (Scottish Procurement Alliance) Framework
  • PfH Lot 1: Windows – supply only, number one contractor for quality and Lot 2: Windows and Doors – supply and install - number one contractor for quality
  • B2G Framework: The supply and installation of external window and door sets, and all associated works, supplies and services. Sidey is the only Scottish company on this Framework

Our Products

We have a complete range of windows and doors to suit any development for refurbishment, new build and retrofit. Energy Efficiency Standard for Social Housing (EESSH), Retrofit for the Future, Fabric First and Passivhaus can all be met using Sidey’s windows and doors.

Manufactured in Scotland from our Perth factory, we have ISO:9001:2015 for the Quality Management System of the manufacture and installation of windows, doors and conservatories using uPVC and aluminium profile.

Sidey is also accredited to the very latest ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018, including CDM for both Designer & Contractor. We are certified BOTH on-site and off-site for all our accreditations, so you are assured work is carried out to recognised international quality standards.

Working With You

We offer support for you from the start to the finish of every project. We understand what is required for this sector, and offer the assistance that is tailored for you and your tenants and residents. The procurement process within local authorities and housing associations often requires information beyond the products and services. We have a dedicated procurement team to create a package that covers the complete project that includes additional information for Health and Safety, the environment and support in the community.

Sidey often work with specifiers and architects during the early stages of the design therefore we can also help create best value solutions for windows and doors.

Working With Your Residents

We have the experience and expertise when it comes to working with tenants and residents. Whether it’s before, during or after the installations, we offer tenant and resident support.

Before the work starts, we have available information that explains what is going to happen during the installation. If your tenants and residents have options on colours or designs, we ensure they have the information they need to make their decision.

We contact tenants and residents directly and understand the importance of care and attention. An information pack including the use and care for Sidey’s windows and doors is also given to your tenants and residents on completion.

For more information see tenant’s information.

Accreditations and Safety

In addition to our manufacturing accreditations, Sidey offers BS 8213-4:2016 for Code of practice for the survey, design and installation of windows and external doorsets. We are dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of survey and installation, and this is the highest level of accreditation in the UK.

As a British Safety Council Member we are also committed to keeping people safe and healthy at work and on site.
