Window Centre Expands Security Line

Window Centre Expands Security Line-Up with Kubu Smart Sensors

Window Centre, the well-established glazing and doors specialist serving the West Midlands, is pleased to announce it has become a supplier and installer of the innovative Kubu Smart Security system. The partnership allows local homeowners to access Kubu’s advanced window and door sensors via Window Centre’s Solihull and Sutton Coldfield showrooms.

Strengthening Home Security

Kubu is a next-generation smart sensing solution that monitors the status of windows and doors—reporting not only open or closed, but whether locks are fully engaged or a window is unintentionally left in vent mode.

Window Centre’s decision to add Kubu to its portfolio reflects growing demand for home automation and security solutions, particularly in suburban areas where older frames may not always meet modern smart-tech compatibility.

Why the Partnership Makes Sense

Proven installation track record: Window Centre has been operating in the West Midlands for over four decades, with full service from free quotation through to after-care.
Smart security credentials: Kubu sensors provide concealed installation, real-time status updates, app-based alerts and integration with smart home platforms such as Alexa or Google Home.
Local relevance: Window Centre is positioned to serve homeowners in Solihull, Warwickshire and Sutton Coldfield — areas where retrofit smart solutions like this are increasingly sought.

What Homeowners Can Expect

When booked via Window Centre, the Kubu installation process typically involves a survey of existing windows and doors to check compatibility (“Works with Kubu®” status), followed by sensor fitting, hub-integration and mobile app setup.
Once installed, homeowners will receive notifications if a window or door is unlocked or open when it shouldn’t be, or if a lock is not properly engaged. This offers additional peace of mind and may be viewed favourably by insurance providers.

What They’re Saying

A spokesperson for Window Centre commented: “Adding Kubu to our product offering enables us to provide not just replacement windows and doors, but smart, connected solutions that genuinely enhance home security. We believe this will appeal to homeowners who want to bring their property into the smart-home era without compromising on aesthetics or quality.”
Meanwhile, Kubu’s marketing materials emphasise: “Simple. Secure. Smart.” — and remind potential purchasers that around 35 % of UK break-ins involve windows and doors left unsecured.

Getting Started

Homeowners in Solihull, Sutton Coldfield and Warwickshire are encouraged to book a free consultation with Window Centre via their website or by visiting one of the two local showrooms. During the consultation they can see a live demo of Kubu sensors in action and explore compatibility with their existing windows or doors.
