Specifying windows and doors should not hold up a design. Yet many architects still lose hours sourcing details, redrawing products from scratch and chasing suppliers for information. This guide explains what IKON provides to make specification quicker and more accurate.
Why specification takes so long
Window and door details touch the structure, floor build-up, wall finishes, drainage and the facade. When product information is incomplete or arrives late, details are guessed, RFIs pile up and mistakes reach site.
What IKON provides
IKON supplies the following on request, ideally at concept stage so each window and door is designed into the opening:
- The IKON brochure and system specifications.
- CAD drawings.
- Revit families.
- Technical support from our team, from early concept to technical documentation.
Which systems are covered
Information is available for the FINO slimline range, including the FINO Sliding Door and FINO Tilt & Turn and Tilt Only, and for the LARGO large format range, including the LARGO Sliding Door and LARGO Pivot Door.
Why it matters
- Specify faster, with less risk of error.
- Communicate clearly with quantity surveyors, builders and clients.
- Get quotes back from partners sooner.
- Keep the design intent intact from drawing to site.
