Energy Efficiency

Our UPVC Open Out Casement windows are registered with the Energy Saving Trust under the window Energy Rating Scheme. We currently are able to offer our customers the most efficient products available under this scheme - an "A" rating. These are available on both fully and partially reinforced products in any colour finish. We are also able to simulate any glazing specification with our product range to prove its thermal performance (whole frame U-Value).

BS7950 Security

To meet the stringent requirements of the standard, we fully reinforce all frames (all foils are fully reinforced regardless of 7950) and add hinge protectors to act as an anti jemmy device.

Secured By Design

To achieve Secured By Design, our Open Out Casement windows are manufactured to BS 7950. We then liaise with the client to ensure that the specific glass requirement specified by the Crime Prevention Design Advisors (Architectural Liaison Officers). This typically will lead to the use of laminate glass on some of the project.
