An all-round It solution: how window designer has worked for First Degree customers

Suitable for PVC-U, wooden and aluminium window manufacturing, First Degree Systems are one of very few software suppliers to offer upgrades free of charge.

The introduction of the ‘Start-Up' package for retail customers, allows fabricators to invest in and offer a cost effective software solution to their customers.

‘Start-Up' offers retail customers a full window designer product, with all the advantages of a web-based ordering system, feeding jobs directly into the fabricator's manufacturing package.

What customers say

Brian Chelton, Duration Windows Managing Director says ‘We have always used Window Designer to manufacture aluminium as well as PVC-U. We fabricate windows, doors, secondary glazing and vertical and horizontal sliders and have always found the software accurate and uncomplicated to use'.

Williams Architectural Systems also use Window Designer to manufacture all styles of aluminium frames and doors. Jon Williams, Managing Director says ‘We have used Window Designer for a number of years to process, cost and manufacture our aluminum frames and doors. Our processors find the software intuitive and easy to use'.

WHS Halo fabricator Omega Trade Frames recently linked our Window Designer to their Elumatec SBZ610 machining centre. Martin Grant, Omega's Production Director says ‘We feel that First Degree Systems is the market leader in window manufacturing software and that this has enabled Omega Trade Frames to become very efficient in our manufacturing processes.'

New products

First Degree Systems have seen a marked increase in sales in the first quarter of 2006, with the introduction of two new products, ‘Sales Chaser' and ‘Stock Assistant'. These products continue to sell well to existing customers and First Degree has recently developed them further to stand alone for use in new markets.
