After around three weeks in production, the Summer edition of DIJ was finally published online in time for the weekend late on Thursday evening!

What is certain is that you’ll find plenty to absorb you in the Summer edition of the DIJ. So grab a cold drink, or an ice cream (or both) and get to grips with all the latest news and views from across the door industry.

And with that, I’ll leave you to enjoy your summer. I hope you have a good rest and recharge those batteries – you’ll hear from me again in a few months.
