Please visit us at our showroom, or call your local distributor to view our latest premium fiberglass lines, the Estate and Artisan Collections. A variety of complementary options are also available to suit every homeowner's taste and requirements. The TECHNOLOGY Using a patented silicone casting with unique Nickle Vapor Deposition Technology, GlassCraft authentically reproduces the natural wood grain surface into a fiberglass door skin. This process starts with hand-selected pieces of wood to build a master wood door with the most desirable wood grains and patterns. A silicone mold is made of the wood door that will accurately copy the finest details of the wood grain. This silicone copy is then transferred into a fiberglass door mold using Nickel Vapor Deposition Technology. The result is a most authentic fiberglass door that looks and feels just like real wood, even up close.

7 life hacks for a stress-free house move Moving house is one of life’s most stressful events. But it doesn’t have to be. If you plan ahead, you can make your move go much more smoothly. Here are 7 life hacks to turn your move from frustrating to plain sailing. 1.Be as flexible as you can with your move date The biggest source of stress in most house moves is being too rigid about which day you want to move. Yes, it’s good to have clarity on the move date. But it’s important to give yourself a range of dates. Especially if you’re moving a long way – like to a faraway part of the country, or even to another country. That way, you’ll have some breathing space if anything goes wrong. Time to recover, or to come up with a plan B. As a secondary benefit, the more flexibility you have, the more money you could save on the move itself. Removal companies have busy and slow times. Ask them which days they’re slowest and book your move for one of those. You’ll usually get the same move for a lower price. And that should help reduce your stress levels too. 2. Take care of all your utilities Look into sorting out your utility contracts around one month before you move. Energy, water, TV and phone contracts are almost never as simple to transfer to your new address as they should be. So give it plenty of time, so you can cancel any contracts you need to and arrange for new suppliers at your new address. 3.Pick a removal company with lots of happy customers If you’re not sure which removal company to go with, there’s one sure-fire tip that will help. First, compare at least 3 different firms – preferably more. That gives you a good idea of what price you should expect to pay. Rule out any that seem too cheap. They’re usually cheap for a reason. Once you’ve compared, the single best way to choose is to pick the company that has the most four or five star online reviews, or the largest number of customer testimonials on their web site. If in any doubt, ask your removal companies for the phone numbers of recent happy customers that you can call yourself. Any good removal company will be happy to do this. 4.Let your mover pack for you If there’s one thing that can really add to the stress of your move, it’s all that packing you have to do. Where do you source packing boxes? Do you scour the web, borrow them from friends and family, or pick up old boxes from your closest supermarket? Then there’s all the wrapping of your more fragile items so that they don’t get damaged. And making sure you don’t overload boxes and make them too heavy. Why not just get your removal company to do it for you? They know how to pack efficiently and securely. And it takes a real weight off your shoulders (literally). Plus, if you pack yourself then your removal company won’t be liable for any damages. When they pack, you’re covered by their goods in transit insurance. Which is a little more peace of mind to help keep you more relaxed on move day. 5.If you do pack yourself, label your packing boxes If you do try to save money by packing yourself, make sure to pack your boxes with items from the same room in each box. Then label each box clearly. This will make it easier for your mover to put your boxes in the right place when they unload in your new property, which will make unpacking go a lot smoother. 6.Plan for delays on the day itself Movers say that the number one cause of stress on moving day is the handing over of keys for the new property. Typically, people expect to receive their keys on the morning of moving day. But in reality, this is delayed in at least 90% of moves. Many’s the mover who’s had to console his customers on moving day when, expecting to move at 11am, they’re still there waiting for keys at 2pm! Plan for this. Double check with your mover whether they’ll charge you a waiting fee. Some do and some don’t. Either way, it’s best to expect that your move will be delayed if you’re waiting for keys. Then at least it will come as less of a shock when it does happen! 7.Leave kids and pets with friends or family during the move If you’re moving fairly locally, this is a great tip for making the day go smoother. Leave any pets and your children with someone you trust to look after them for the day. So much easier than having to keep an eye on them the whole time. Not to mention less stressful for them. You’ll have fewer tearful tantrums to deal with. They’ll have more fun being looked after in a relaxed environment, and you’ll be able to focus your attention on the move itself. Then, when you’re done moving, just go back to pick up your kids and pets and drive them to your new house. Heck, if your friends and family like you enough, maybe you can get them to look after your little terrors for long enough that you can even unpack and tidy away before you move them in – reducing the stress even more! These essential moving life hacks are brought to you by buzzmove.com, a house removals comparison site that exists to make moving less stressful.
