Metal Windows

Made from Architectural Bronze

Whether you are updating existing windows and wish to have a like-for-like replacement, undergoing renovations or working on a new build, we offer a range of metal window systems suitable for most projects, from residential to commercial and historical buildings.

All systems are available with either a rebate or an equal leg for fitting into flush reveals. Finesight lines are a feature in all our extrusions coupled with the choice of three subtle tones of bronze. All windows are supplied with the glass of your choice from double glazed gas filled units to traditional single glazed leaded lights with kiln distorted glass. Combined with our extensive woodworking department, we can also provide a variety of timber sub-frames and fulfil all your glazing requirements for your project.

Why Choose Bronze for Windows?

Bronze is a beautiful metal that has been used in architecture for centuries. It combines timeless aesthetics with practical benefits and sustainability, making it a long-term investment for future generations to enjoy.

Slim Profiles

Whilst exceptionally strong, architectural bronze is a refined metal alloy and can be extruded to slender sections with great detail. The fine sightlines of all our bronze systems will produce a slim framed window with interesting and attractive transom and abutting detail.

Low Maintenance

Bronze is a non-ferrous metal and naturally resistant to corrosion requiring minimal maintenance to retain its durability and charm. Unlike ferrous metals such as steel, bronze does not require galvanising and painting or powdercoating which can chip, peel and will deteriorate over time.

Striking Aesthetic

The aesthetics of bronze provides an incomparable finish to traditional powder coated steel and aluminium metal windows and doors. Consider why bronze was the chosen metal of great civilisations for the beautifully aged statues and coins that remain in existence today.

Thermally efficient windows

Our Thermabronze™ system incorporates two thermal breaks without compromising the fine sightlines and detail of a traditional metal window. It is the most widely used of all our window systems and was developed to meet the demand for greater thermal performance and efficiency. The Thermabronze™ system also conforms to Part Q security requirements.

Windows can be designed with horizontal and vertical transoms and can also be bent to form shallow curves. Glazing is secured into position with a choice of traditional and contemporary decorative bead to the exterior of this outward opening window.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

Windows for Heritage Buildings

Our Heritage system has been specifically designed for use on historic period buildings and conservation projects where very fine sightlines and aesthetics are essential. The fineness of the Heritage profile means it can be bent into the more extreme curves and shapes that is often a requirement of some period buildings such as churches.

As glazing is traditionally silicone pointed into position, it is suitable where traditional leaded lights are specified, however it can also accept any combination of conventional double glazing up to 16mm.

Inward Opening Windows

The Advanced Inward opening system is specified for properties in towns where windows would otherwise open onto pavements, also for high-level windows which cannot be conventionally cleaned or maintained from the outside. The other benefit of this system is that in most cases windows can be installed and glazed from inside the property.

It was originally inspired by the continental preference for inward opening windows, allowing for the use of exterior shutters. The windows are only available in equal leg sections and is designed to take 18mm double glazed units fitted into position with a traditional or contemporary shaped bead.

Advanced System

The Advanced system is a popular choice for many renovation projects which do not require such stringent u-value performance. It is also a more cost-effective option over the Thermabronze™ system.

The Advanced System is outward opening and was the first of our profiles designed with a decorative bead to the outside of the window which simplifies the glazing process over traditional silicone pointing and provides a particularly attractive profile from the outside.

BRONZE TONES

Bronze can be antiqued to two standard lustres – Mid Bronze and Dark Bronze. This choice helps to achieve the best look for your project and complements other materials in your home. We can also supply products in Bright Bronze which strips the brass alloy back to its raw gold-like colour.
