Casement Wooden Windows
This is our our standard specification, However as all of our windows are manufactured to order we are able to work to alternative specification if required.
Timber
The timber we use is of the highest quality, usually Hardwood, for instance European oak, Mahogany, Idigbo although if you require any other timber species don't hesitate to ask.
Construction Method
Our traditional windows can have top-hung and/or side-hung sashes. The frame is constructed from 71mm x 60mm timber which gives a substantial look. We use a mortice and tenon construction to ensure strength and security. All our traditional windows are pre-beaded with a bevelled bead for ease of glazing and painting.
In order to comply with the new building regulations, the sashes are thicker than traditionally to enable them to carry a 24mm thick (4/16/4), double-glazing unit. If your property is a listed building or in a conservation area, these regulations may not apply.
Non-opening panes can be direct glazed into the frame or a fixed sash installed to match the opening sashes.
All opening sashes are draught sealed with a compression seal built in.
Ironmongery
Our standard ironmongery includes butt hinges and key-locking casement stays. However you can choose which sort of hardware you require for your needs. All screws and nails used in the manufacture are coated for durability.
Variations
Variations to this window style include glazing bars to form a Georgian or small-paned window, and a swept or arched head.
