Tradeglaze delivers commercial glazing solutions for Pennells Garden Centre expansion

Location: Sleaford, Lincolnshire

Lincolnshire-based steel construction specialist Timmins Engineering appointed Tradeglaze to provide commercial glazing for the Pennell Garden Centres expansion at their Sleaford location.

The new development, opening in early September, will add a 1,750-square-metre retail area, an upgraded restaurant increasing capacity from 100 to 250 seats, and extended parking to accommodate more visitors.

Tradeglaze Head of Sales Jonathan Brewer says:

“We were proud to play a role in this significant project. Our team delivered a range of high-spec commercial glazing solutions, ensuring this space remains both functional and attractive, serving customers and the community for years ahead.”

The project required a glazing solution that is able to perform efficiently, withstand the demands of a high-footfall retail environment, comply with safety and accessibility standards as well as blending seamlessly with the modern aesthetics of the building.

Our experienced team specified a range of high quality Aluminium commercial glazing products, manufactured in our Lincoln based factory using the innovative Senior Architectural Systems Aluminium window and Aluminium door profiles.

The products used include four sets of bi-parting sliding Senior SD Auto Doors integrated into the Senior SFG Shopfront system. These doors feature low thresholds to support accessibility and create smooth, user-friendly transitions, making them ideal for busy retail entrances where safety and ease of use are essential. The installation also includes our thermally enhanced SPW600 Aluminium window, designed for long-term efficiency.

All the products are PAS24 tested for maximum security and finished in a sleek, ultra-modern Jet Black (RAL 9005) textured powder-coated profile, offering both visual impact and long-lasting durability.

The thermally enhanced glazing that the team manufactured and installed supports the project’s environmental credentials, working in conjunction with additional features like solar panels and LED lighting to reduce operational energy consumption and carbon footprint.

Will Thornes, Contract Manager at Timmins Engineering says about Tradeglaze’s contribution to the project:

“It was a pleasure to work with Tradeglaze on our project at Pennells Garden Centre. From start to finish, Tradeglaze offered a professional and efficient service. Agreed delivery dates were met, and the workmanship was of a high standard.”
