Made in the Midlands has greatly enhanced its security at its offices in Wolverhampton by having Taurus Max commercial aluminium windows fitted by ATB Systems.

The manufacturing and engineering network decided to increase the security of their Wolverhampton headquarters by replacing their original windows with a composite fixed light and drop back opening window incorporating integral anti-vandal mesh from ATB’S Taurus Max range.  Whilst the drop back meshed window is one of the most secure aluminium windows on the market, it also provides a discreet and non-bulky physical barrier.  As the unique glass protection mesh is ‘built in,’ as part of the integral profile of the windows, the windows remain aesthetically appealing with clean lines and externally have the appearance of bronze tinted glass.  Notably, the windows still allow a high level of light transmittance of around 60% and can still be opened for normal ventilation purposes whilst maintaining exceptional protection against break in or vandal attack.  

Dave Simms, Commercial Manager of ATB Systems commented: “The unique combination of enhanced security but with visually attractive windows means that Made in the Midlands has managed to retain a pleasant working environment with the very best protection.”

Charles Addison, Commercial Director of Made in the Midlands said: “After having an unexpected need for improved security, we were very pleased with both the quality and aesthetics of the new installation and the vastly improved security. The best thing was, having the ATB team on site the same day to look after us.  This gave us great peace of mind going forward.”

ATB Systems offer the Taurus Max window as side hung, inward opening and drop back combination to meet an ever increasing demand for security.  The Taurus Max range are ideally suited for applications where high security specification solutions, without external obstruction, are a key design requirement.  They can be installed in offices, apartments, hospitals and schools etc.  ATB Systems offer glazing thickness options from 28mm to 44mm, as well as double glazing and triple glazing.

Established in 1997, ATB Systems is a family run business situated in Lye in the West Midlands.   They principally manufacture and supply aluminium windows and doors for the modular,re-locatable and systems building industries.
