IN-GLAZED BLINDS

We have recently introduced double glazing with Venetian blinds between the glass panes. These operate from a magnetic pull cord system and come in various colours.

The Blinds are sealed in a dust free environment and therefore remain clean throughout their life and also they do not get in the way! Click on the button alongside for more information.

GEORGIAN BARS

'Duplex bar' system is our way of manufacturing double glazed units with Georgian bars. The units are made with back to back spacer bars inside the unit with timber bars adhering to the outside back and front. This has the effect of replicating the narrow and refined glazing bars found in Georgian and Victorian windows. We have made many box sash and casement windows with this system.
