Who we are

Our mission is to simplify bespoke and complex building methods. It’s why we exist, it’s our core reason for being.

There are three key pillars to our unique value proposition:

1. Legacy of industry leading innovation
2. Detailed project assistance at every stage
3. Reduce risk for every stakeholder

Our core values

  1. Keep it simple
  2. Tell things as they are
  3. Embrace change
  4. Positive ‘will do’ attitude
  5. Work hard, have fun
  6. Never ever give up
  7. Take ownership
  8. One company, one team
  9. Get the result
  10. Learn continuously

Keep it simple.

Life is complex. Regardless of career or job, people are always looking for ways to make life simpler. Why? Because the simpler you can make something the higher the chance of success!

Our mission is to make our customers’ lives easier.

Tell things as they are.

Be candid; tell things as they really are.

Sugar coating the truth doesn’t do anyone any favours. Being candid builds trust and makes things happen faster.

Embrace change.

Change is great! Embrace it.

Look for change, seize the opportunities, relish the challenge and enjoy the journey.

Positive ‘will do’ attitude.

Positivity is contagious – be the energiser in your team.

Someone with a positive attitude can get anything done however hard the journey, whilst motivating those around them.

Work hard, have fun.

Hard work is the most important ingredient to success.

And hard work doesn’t need to be boring – laughter, fun and enjoying each other’s company is key to our success.

Never ever give up.

Just don’t. Truly successful people never give up.

You will undoubtedly need to make adjustments to your pathway towards your goal, but never give up. Ever.

Take ownership.

Whatever you do, own it.

Whether it be a simple task, a complex project, something that’s gone wrong, answering the phone or sweeping the floor, make it your responsibility to ensure it gets done properly.

One company, one team.

On our own we are nothing; working together we are a powerful force.

Great team players are respectful, humble and work for each other, not themselves.

Get the result.

The responsibility to achieve your goals is on you. As a team, we work together to achieve our goals and we assist each other all the way, but the final responsibility to achieve your goals lies with you.

Step up to the challenge and go for it!

Learn continuously.

The one thing that will never change will be the need to grow your knowledge.

Maximise your potential and become an expert in your particular field through continuous learning.

Experience simplicity

Often, the methods and processes of fitting doors can be problematic. Selo doorsets were borne from the belief that it shouldn’t be this way. We create systems that complement architectural design, are highly functional, and are simple to implement.

Selo doorsets and accompanying products enable you to achieve the interior design and the space functionality that previously you could have only ever wished for.
