The Spring 2025 Door Industry Journal is available online now!

Welcome to the Spring 2025 Issue of the DIJ - Spring has sprung, and the flowers are in bloom, so what better way to celebrate than with a new edition packed full of industry news and views?

This season, I’ve selected our ‘Top Ten Blooms of Spring’ to highlight some particularly interesting reads: Bloom 1 – SIMONSWERK is sprouting up at the FIT Show for its debut appearance (page 10) Bloom 2 – SOMMER DOCO strengthens its roots with a new manufacturing facility in Rochdale (page 18) Bloom 3 – Spring into safety with this egg-cellent comparison of fire curtains versus fire shutters (page 24) Bloom 4 – Cooks Doors celebrates 60 blooming years in business. (page 32) Bloom 5 – Hörmann UK and Skanska’s new £259m Ministry of Defence project is hatching nicely in Tewkesbury (page 70) Bloom 6 – Everything’s bigger in Texas, including Jewers Doors’ Phoenix installation that’s blossoming across the pond (page 74) Bloom 7 – Alliance Door Engineering’s new high-speed door is ready to spring into action soon (page 78) Bloom 8 – Allegion UK’s finger protection systems ensure your digits stay egg-stra safe (page 94) Bloom 9 – ARRONE is no April fool when it comes to letterplates that address security concerns (page 116) Bloom 10 – Our basket of spring funnies – each one guaranteed to make you crack up! (page 121) There is plenty more to keep you growing inside. Whether you’re enjoying chocolate eggs over the Easter period or simply appreciating the longer, brighter days, I hope this issue brings you fresh industry insights. I’ll be back with you again in the summer. Derek Hibbart Editor, Door Industry Journal www.dijonline.co.uk
