Keith Willis, Head of Special Projects at Charles Church, who used Portico products in every apartment at their development in the Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham as well as at Holliday Wharf, said, “the Portico products complimented the project extremely well and the installations went smoothly. We have found that Portico provide economical storage solutions whilst giving a wide choice of materials and contemporary finishes. We were particularly pleased to be given alternative options to provide continuity throughout the apartments. For example, if a customer had chosen oak door finishes, we, through Portico, were also able to offer oak as a finish on wardrobe doors, therefore adding to the choices and continuity available.”
In addition to the oak finishes available from Portico, they can also provide alternative cutting edge designs including black, silver, chrome, white, cherry and pearwood along with a choice of specialist glass: including, silver, metallic silver, soft white and black.
The range of room dividers effectively provide ‘sliding walls’ that allow an area to be partitioned off. The dining area of the lounge can be made more intimate or the sofa bed area of the sitting room can become an overnight temporary bedroom.
The safety backed glass panels offer a multitude of options including highly reflective coloured glass or silver mirror, a variety of frame colours including wood veneer and even a choice to split each panel horizontally using Oriental style bars.
