Putting a frameless glass walls between our South facing lounge and dining room conservatories was one of the best things we have ever done in our house. When shut, they keep out the cold in winter and, most importantly, the heat on very hot summer days. When open during sunny winter days, the heat warms the whole house and reduces our heating bills significantly.
FGC are a marvellous friendly company. Very efficient and a pleasure to work with. The alternative for us would be bi-fold doors. So glad we didn’t go down that route. Much nicer to have clear unobstructed views. Thank you FGC.

We would like to say how pleased we are with our fabulous new FGC doors and conservatory.  We thought the transformation would be great, but it’s only once they’re in that we’ve been able to see the full glory of the design – and our view!  We’ve had all the making-good done now, taken off all the plastic film and the result is we have beautiful, draught-proof doors and a lovely, contemporary conservatory.
And we’d also like to say a sincere thank you to your installation team.  They were efficient, courteous and highly skilled – and, successfully, had to deal with more issues on-site than they (or we) expected!  We were extremely impressed by their professionalism and the finished article is, as above, fantastic.

This is the first project I have completed with FGC and it will not be the last. From the original survey and quote, right through to final installation, the team at FGC have been tremendous.
The communication and detail is outstanding, the quote was fair market competitive and the final result of the product in situ is absolutely outstanding. I have never seen a system like this before. The quality of the work is remarkable, the installation team were timely and so professional. If you are thinking of adding value and ultimate style to your property, this is the way to go.
Thank you FGC for delivering as promised: on time, on budget and to the highest quality.

We are very pleased with our frameless curtains in our dining room and lounge, both of which open out into a conservatory.
 
Our first contact with you, by telephone, was excellent.  We were invited to look at your glass curtains at your showroom in Chatham which is an hour and a half distant.  Seeing the glass curtains was the best thing to do for us.  Even though your web site clearly shows them, we still needed to see them ‘in the flesh’ and we were then in no doubt that they would be perfect for our home.  We had a really nice welcome at your showroom and taken through all the aspects or their installation and operating procedures.
 
Both the onsite survey and installation were arranged and people arrived on time – even though the M25 had to be negotiated!!  The installation team were meticulous in clearing up as they went.  They were extremely professional.
 
I have no hesitation in recommending your product.  They are cleverly designed and enhance our rooms.
 
We are very happy for people to view our installation by appointment but would not want our address details published.

Installation of four double-glazed doors, internal to a large bay window arrangement, top floor flat.
Initial contact was by email and a quote came back within a couple of days. More than can be said for some of the other companies we contacted about similar products. We visited the factory for a demonstration and were also put in touch with a relatively local previous customer whom we went to see, to look at the product in the ‘real world’ so to speak and to discuss their experience with the company. This was a very positive visit and we decided to go ahead with ordering. After some negotiation on price (this is not a cheap product, but you get what you pay for!) the order was placed, a site survey was carried out, and we awaited a call for an installation date. This came much sooner than anticipated which was great. On the installation day, the three installers arrived on time at 08:00 and they were done by 16:00. It took twice as long as anticipated due to them having to drill out concrete to lay the track. There was not one grumble about this, they were all polite and friendly guys. Quite a lot of mess was made by the installation, mainly due to drilling into concrete, but the guys were careful to clean up after themselves as best they could.

As to how we were from initial contact (were we polite)?
 
Initial contact was great!  You may remember that we first visited one of your existing customers in Henley.  I honestly can’t remember the ladies name but she was really helpful, was happy to invite us round the next evening and was clearly delighted with the finished product.  We subsequently (next weekend) arranged to come over to your manufacturing site and spent some time with Paul who explained in more detail how the product was conceived, how you manufactured, the options available and the process going forward.  All really helpful, friendly and informative.  We left knowing the whilst your product is roughly 2x the cost of “bog standard” bi-fold doors, in reality there is really no comparison.  All the people we’ve shown so far have been blown away with the installation and at the moment they don’t look as good as they will with a finished floor and finished patio.
 
Arranging installation (were we on time and on schedule)
 
Installation was really simple – you and your team worked really well with my builder – Mike Nash @ BCS.  We needed to delay the originally agreed upon date due to some extra worked required to install steels etc.  Your team were able to flex the install date and work seamlessly with our builder to get the doors installed.  Our builder commented how slick your team was installing the product.  He’s so impressed I think it’s a feature he may well recommend to future clients working on similar projects.
 
Were we clean and tidy?
 
As clean and tidy as you can be on a proper building site!!
 
And finally are you pleased with our doors (would you Recommend us)?
 
We’re delighted.  Obviously we’re not living with the door yet, but we’ve been over a few times and played opening and closing them.  They look great in the building site location and we know they’ll look and work even better once we’re complete and decorated.  I’m happy to update this section in April once we’ve been in for a while and happy to take some photos once we’re decorated and have the outside landscaping complete.  I think they’ll look really special then!
 
May I also ask if you would like to be on our list of completed installations?
 
Yes, happy to be listed, need to wait until March before we can really show them.
 
As we often get asked if we have anything people living locally can view
 
If we can help show your product – we’ll do so willingly.  We both work so will need a little scheduling but in principle – absolutely.
 
We pay £50 each client and an extra £50 if they buy our product
 
Great!  I think the lady who acted as a reference site in Henley told us that you’d really looked after her in terms of after-sales service and this also sold us on the product and company.
