Sash & Case Windows
Our sash and case windows preserve traditional Scottish architectural styles while incorporating double glazing and draught-proofing. Each unit is crafted from sustainably sourced timber to meet conservation standards. Designed for thermal efficiency, they reduce heat loss and enhance comfort in historic and modern properties alike.
UPVC Windows
Modern UPVC windows offer low-maintenance alternatives to timber, retaining aesthetic appeal with durable, weather-resistant profiles. Installed with energy-efficient glass units, they improve insulation and reduce energy bills. Ideal for properties requiring long-lasting performance with minimal upkeep.
Wooden Doors
Custom-made wooden doors combine traditional joinery techniques with modern security features. Available in various designs, they complement period properties while meeting contemporary thermal and safety standards. Each door is finished with protective coatings to withstand Scotland's climate.
Bi Fold Doors
Bi fold doors create seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces, crafted from high-quality materials for durability. Available in timber or UPVC, they feature advanced sealing systems to maintain energy efficiency while offering unobstructed views and flexible access.
Double Glazing
Double-glazed units utilise low-emissivity glass with argon gas fills to maximise thermal efficiency. Warm-edge spacers and secure seals reduce condensation and noise, enhancing comfort. Installed in timber or UPVC frames, they lower energy costs and improve acoustic insulation for residential properties.
