Sydney Auctions negotiates sale of Joinery Business

Sydney Auctions today announced the signing of an Agreement to sell the Artarmon Joinery Pty Limited
company Brand, Intellectual Property & business Goodwill to Windoor Joinery Pty Limited.
The Artarmon Joinery business, founded by Matt & Mandy Collin in 1994, has been supplying builders,
architects, developers and homeowners with a wide variety of innovative timber window & door products
for over 27 years.

Due to recent ill health Matt has decided to retire and engaged Key Property Group & Sydney Auctions to
sell the business & the machinery assets.

Windoor Joinery was founded by John and Cathie Dolan alongside their son Ian in 1985. At that time,
Windoor operated from a small garage in Liverpool, Sydney, where the company commenced manufacturing
timber windows and doors. Windoor Joinery’s showrooms in St Marys, Willoughby & Orange are a true
representation of the quality timber windows and doors that Windoor Joinery supplies to leading architects,
developers, builders and home owners right across Australia.

On completion of the transaction, negotiated by David Purtle of Key Property Group, Windoor Joinery will
take over the clients currently serviced by Artarmon.

Matthew Collin, Managing Director of Artarmon Joinery, said, “I have known Ian Dolan of Windoor for over
25 years, we are pleased that Windoor recognises the strength of the Artarmon Joinery business as well as
its’ future potential.

Going forward I am sure Windoor Joinery will service the Artarmon Joinery clients to the highest of standards
& quality. I believe the Artarmon Joinery business clients are in very good hands with Ian & the team at
Windoor.

were both founding members of WADIC (Window & Door Industry Council), we are pleased to finalise the
acquisition of the Artarmon Joinery business & wish Matt all the best in his retirement. Artarmon Joinery
