Option 1 · Your crew, our manuals
The standard Design & Supply route. You receive level-by-level installation packs: setting-out drawings, panel schedules, fixing sequences, torque tables and a sealant specification. Your local crew erects the envelope; our engineers answer field questions remotely, within one working day.
This is the most economical option and works well for straightforward envelopes with experienced glaziers. Hillcrest Residence ran on this model with just a supervised start.
Option 2 · Your crew, our engineer on site
For crews new to the system, or owners who want certainty, we place an installation engineer on site — typically for the first one to three weeks. The engineer runs the setting-out verification, trains the crew on the first panels, audits the sealant work, and hands over a photographed inspection record before leaving.
Supervision is a weekly-rate add-on, scoped in writing before it starts. For most self-builds and first-time facade contractors, it is the single highest-value line in the budget.
Option 3 · Our installation
For the right projects, we take the envelope to completion with our own or partner crews — typically where the client has no qualified local installer, or in markets where we hold established installation partners. These projects are assessed individually: budget, location, schedule and local regulations all weigh in, and the contract separates supply warranty from installation warranty so responsibility is never ambiguous.
We are candid about fit: if your local market has strong glaziers, Option 1 or 2 will usually serve you better.
How to choose
Ask three questions. Has your crew erected curtain wall before? Is the envelope geometry standard or bespoke? And what does a week of programme delay cost you? Experienced crew and standard geometry — Option 1. New crew or a prized finish — Option 2. No qualified installer within reach — ask us about Option 3. Tell us your preference in your enquiry and we will price the envelope accordingly.
