Services
Curtain Wall
Drayton Windows offers high-performance curtain wall solutions developed in partnership with Kawneer and Schuco. Our systems combine pressure plate and cap stick construction methods to deliver cost-effective, thermally efficient faades. We incorporate spandrel glass, louvres, and brise soleil to create visually striking designs while meeting acoustic and solar control requirements. Our technical expertise ensures minimal procurement lead times for commercial projects.
Fire Protection Products
We supply and install Schuco and Kawneer fire-rated products including doors, windows, and curtain walling with 30-90 minute fire resistance. These systems provide insulation, integrity, and security against burglary while meeting DIN EN 1634 standards. Our solutions include barrier-free options and integrated panic doors, combining safety with acoustic performance for commercial and public buildings.
Refurbishment
Our refurbishment services focus on improving energy efficiency and aesthetics through glazing replacement and over-cladding systems. We offer cost-effective solutions for upgrading existing faades using profiled, micro-rib, or flat cladding materials. This approach reduces CO2 emissions while enhancing building appearance without requiring full envelope replacement, ideal for occupied structures with logistical constraints.
Windows & Doors
We manufacture and install commercial aluminium, PVCu, and timber-composite windows and doors. Our systems combine security, thermal efficiency, and design flexibility to meet diverse project requirements. As regional specialists, we deliver solutions tailored to budget and specification constraints across commercial, residential, and public sector developments.
Architectural Facades
Our architectural faade solutions utilise off-site manufacturing techniques for cost-effective delivery across commercial, leisure, and healthcare sectors. We create rainscreen systems and custom designs that align with architects' visions while ensuring technical compatibility. Our approach integrates modern construction methods with traditional craftsmanship for visually striking, functional building envelopes.
