Universal Trade Frames, a specialist Spectus Systems fabricator and provider of high-quality PVC-U doors and windows to the trade, has renewed its membership with Secured by Design (SBD)
Universal Trade Frames has built a reputation for delivering top-quality, high-security window and door products from its factory since 1996. We are honoured to have maintained long-standing relationships with several of our customers since inception.
The Universal Trade Frames product range is extensive
The window range comprises PVC-U casement, tilt and turn, flush casement and sliding sash. In addition, there are composite, bi-folding, residential and patio doors.
It offers a range of aluminium door and window products, as well as conservatory roof solutions.
Meeting the highest standards and complying with the latest regulations has become a bedrock of the company’s approach to business. Every combination of products in its portfolio has undergone extensive testing and certification.
Nine of Universal Trade Frames’ Spectus Elite 70 products – four doors and five windows – have achieved SBD’s Police Preferred Specification for being sufficiently robust to deter opportunist burglars. These accredited products include bevelled, ovolo and flush system profiles.

Richard Hammond, sales director at Universal Trade Frames, said: “Our Secured by Design membership underlines our dedication to top-tier standards and fabrication quality. Our innovative Unibar solution, featuring a low U-value and fully welded RCM reinforcing, has distinguished us as pioneers in the field.
“Our innovative approach led to us being the first Epwin fabricator to receive both PAS24:2022 and BS6375 certifications (prerequisites to SBD membership), without the need for steel reinforcing, positioning Universal as pioneers within the industry.
“We display the SBD logo with an immense degree of pride and appreciate the Kudos it affords us. Long may the relationship continue”.
Universal Trade Frames has been a member of SBD since 2018
Hazel Goss, Secured by Design, said: “It has been a pleasure to have Universal Trade Frames renew their membership with Secured by Design.
Having been members with us since 2018, they have continued to manufacture an excellent range of doors and windows for the domestic markets. I am really looking forward to working alongside them for even more years to come and watching them develop even further as long-standing members.”
