What sets Fabco frames apart?
Fabco frames use hot-rolled steel for production, produced in Switzerland for uncompromising quality, and shipped directly to our factory in West Sussex where are in house team fabricate the frames.

Why choose steel glazing or aluminium?
Steel is much stronger than aluminium, enabling our products to maintain a slimmer profile whilst also spanning further per leaf. For example, our external doors can be scaled up to 2500mm (H), whereas an aluminium frame that is four times the profile size is limited to 2400mm (H). Watch out for ‘steel-like’ products, they are still aluminium!
Our frames also use authentic steel glazing bars welded into the frame during fabrication, whereas other like-for-like products can consist of 10-12mm plastic glazing bars adhered to the glass which fail over time due to fluctuations in conditions.

Do you work with heritage sites?
Fabco can and has produced steel glazing for heritage and listed building sites, with some beautiful examples on our social media. We can offer single glazing for these projects in line with building control requirements.

Double or triple glazing?
Due to the slim nature of our frames steel profile, Fabco are able to fit an 18mm double glazed unit into the frames. Triple glazing is unfortunately too chunky for our product, and requires a larger aluminium profile. We use an incredibly high performing double glazed unit, filled with Krypton gas which performs far greater than the industry standard Argon gas

Can you offer different locking options?
