All Cattles door glazing bead frames
are purpose made to their customers specifications, which can include virtually
any shape and size, glazing bread frame or panel beads .
Interior
designers, architects and developers have specified highly innovative and attractive
glazing bead frames for us to manufacture. We thoroughly enjoy the challenge that
specifications of this nature can present. With the combination of our traditional
craftsmanship skills and modern equipment it is extremely satisfying to be able
to deliver a first class product which will stand the test of time.
One
of our specialities is being able to make a mitred joint where curved sections
meet straight, producing a sharp point appearance to the perimeter of a frame,
but then mirrored on the inside edge. (ie: it can go to a point, and not have
rounded corners).
This is a facility which allows consistency
of design which is a great benefit to interior designers and architects.
Special
shaped glazing beads can be made from traditional hardwoods or an exotic species.
There are times when interior designers and architects will chose to paint interior
doors and either match or contrast the glazing bead frames. All our glazing beads
are supplied with the exposed faces fine sanded that is suitable for painting
or polishing with a clear lacquer finish.
Whether
our glazing bead frames are specified by door manufacturers or interior designers
they will still comply with all health and safety standards.
