Leak-Proof Confidence

2026 so far, is the wettest on record for the UK but that didn’t cause a problem for DoorCo’s FLiP glazing cassette, with zero complaints received from customers.

“I’m sure many people are fed up with the incessant rain we’ve had this year but over at DoorCo, we’re embracing it,” said Ben Aspinall, DoorCo’s commercial director. “It’s proving the performance of our exclusive door glazing cassette system, FLiP.

“We have received zero complaints about leaking cassettes from our customers so far this year and have in fact, had customers commenting how pleased they are to have had zero call outs on leaking cassettes too. Nearly our entire customer base has adopted FLiP.”

Customer testimonials

Jimmy Wood of North East Panels said: “FLiP is a great system, it’s completely eliminated the issues we were having with leakage from our previous supplier. It also makes glazing and on the odd occasion it’s required, reglazing, totally simple.”

Dan Edwards of Nationwide: “The system is both streamlined and extensive. The pre-foamed gasket removes the need for glazing tape and the corners and connectors coming pre-screwed makes the whole system extremely quick and easy to use.”

Portico

Tony Craggs, Portico: "We choose to use FLiP for its ‘foam in place’ technology that allows us to say goodbye to glazing tape and wet seals. It makes it quicker and easier for us to glaze our doors."

Proven real life performance

Ben Aspinall added: “We extensively tested FLiP during development to ensure it is weatherproof and secure, testing to BS6375-2015 and in accordance with EN1027, all supported by DoorCo’s 10-year warranty. The FLiP cassette achieved over 1000pa through the glazing aperture during weather testing, so we were confident, yey it’s great when that performance is proven and endorsed by customers, in real life.”

Foam in place

FLiP’s weatherability is down to the Foam In Place technology. There is no need for glazing tape with FLiP, it is delivered pre-sealed which is machine-applied. Not only does this deliver a good seal, offers time and cost-saving benefits in manufacturing too.

It also has pre-screwed corners and connectors for even quicker and easier installation. A third screw fitted in the corner piece and innovative connector design that clamps to internal and external side of the door and glass gives additional security and stability.

All FLiP cassettes are made from 100% pure, UV stable material. DoorCo does not use regrind materials or additives that can affect the integrity of the product, causing cassettes to be brittle, crack and discolour.
