About Us
Established in 1990 and operating from Cookstown in Co. Tyrone, BA Components has grown steadily to become a major manufacturer of kitchen and bedroom doors and accessories in the UK and Irish furniture components industry.
We are the largest door producer supplying small, medium and large manufacturers with bespoke, madeto-measure doors with no minimum order quantity. In addition we have one of the largest ranges of matching accessories, handles, lighting and storage available in the market today.
BA is a market leader, and we regularly use feedback from our customers to help in our decisions on new products and colours. The products are marketed under the brand names "Bella and Zurfiz by BA" offering a wide choice of seven ranges from Bella's Timeless Classics to the beautiful Zurfiz Fantasy range.
Why BA
Replacing a kitchen or bedroom is a decision that's likely to impact on our lives for years to come and is a decision that needs to be approached in a measured and informed manner.
It's vitally important the materials used, the production processes employed and the design applied are of a standard to produce the best possible end product. All doors and accessories manufactured by BA Components are produced in one of the most advanced factories in this industry today. Using expertise and procedures developed and perfected since the Company's inception twenty years ago we produce every item to the very highest quality standard. This pursuit of quality and an awareness of the ecological issues around our industry have influenced the protocols and processes applied in our manufacturing systems.
Quality
The entire production complex and store is temperature controlled 24 hours a day every day of the year by an eco friendly heating system fuelled using the company's wood waste. Control of the humidity in our stores and factory ensures consistency in the quality of our raw materials brought into production. This is key to efficiency in production and therefore the quality of the end products.
We are the largest door producer supplying small, medium and large manufacturers with bespoke, madeto-measure doors with no minimum order quantity. In addition we have one of the largest ranges of matching accessories, handles, lighting and storage available in the market today.
We regularly test and monitor the quality and reliability of both current and new products and materials. The installation of a calibrated test oven enables us to carry out routine internal evaluation of product to FIRA regulations using British Standard Test Method Part B: Adhesion Performance BS 6222 Part 3 1999, involving exposure of samples to rigorous temperature profiles.
Lot traceability of raw materials throughout our product range provides a key advantage for continuous process control and allows us to offer unique product identity for all our customers.
Our strategic approach to achieve, sustain and improve quality ensures highly reliable products in the market place. This demonstrates and provides assurance to all our customers of our continuous commitment and focus on product quality.
Process
From our purpose built factory, the use of state of the art CNC and robotic processing machinery allows us to produce consistently high quality products. This process was designed in association with 5 European machinery manufacturers and based on our own concept designs. There are now 5 twin head CNC routers working on the first stage of the process, creating the designs on colour matched board. Advanced internal software uses an optimising system to plan production efficiently based on colour batches, and this information is sent directly to the hard drive of each router. The production process for the zurfiz doors uses the latest CNC edge banding lines which have been specifically designed to edge high gloss and acrylic materials. The PUR (Poly Urethane Reactive) gluing system applies a high heat & water resistent glue line. The high precision trimming, polishing & buffing units leave a perfect edge time after time.
The production process for Bella doors and accessories has 3 pressing lines, two of which are fully automated robotic gluing, pressing and trimming lines which are the most advanced of their kind in the world.
Final inspection is a crucial part of the process to ensure that all products leave our factory in first class condition and to this end we now mark all our doors with a label proudly displaying our Registered Quality Symbols.
