Make your windows unique to you

Frame styles

Customise your new windows with your preferred frame style.

Colours

Your windows can be finished in a choice of RAL colours of timber stains.

Hardware

Customise your new windows with your preferred hardware.

Your windows and doors can be finished in a choice of RAL colours or timber stains.

The colours you choose for your window frames and doors can make a big difference to the impact of your project. All products also have the option of dual colour where one colour is chosen for the outside and one for the inside.

Trickle vents

We promote MVHR when it comes to ventilation, however, if you are unable to accommodate an MVHR system then we can fit conventional trickle vents to your windows. This does affect the thermal performance and airtightness of the window, so please speak to us about ventilation.

Sills

Extensions sills protect and maintain windows by directing water away from the window. We have a variety of aluminium extensions sills ranging in size from 25mm to 380mm. We also have profiles available in Acoya timber. All sills can be colour matched to the window.

Safety

We offer a range of optional safety features. These include child restrictors to limit the opening of windows. Egress hinges to maximise opening areas of side hung windows for escape. Safety glazing to protect from falling and impact, and lockable handles where required.

We offer a range of glazing options to give you the flexibility you need.

From obscure to transparent, we can offer plenty of choice for window and door glazing. Make your project unique with our various glazing options and glass finishes.

FAQs

  • Approved Document Q of the Building Regulations for England became mandatory for all new dwellings on 1 October 2016. This means that windows and doors in new dwellings, where Part Q is applicable, will need to be security tested to PAS 24, or equivalent standard.

  • Please contact us for advice on the best range for your project. Or see our summary and overview of the ranges.

  • 21 Degrees windows & doors are all made from timber. Our ranges are made from FSC® certified Redwood or Oak. Modern timber finishes are now so durable that, for most applications, we recommend them over aluminium cladding or UPVC.

  • U-Values measure how well heat is transferred by the entire window/ door – the frame, sash and glass – either into or out of the building.  The lower the U-Value number, the better the window or door will keep heat inside a building on a cold day.
