Choosing timber windows and doors made in the UK offers peace of mind. It’s not just about the quality, but about ensuring you get what you’ve ordered at the right time without any hidden surprises. Replacing windows and doors is a significant investment, and you need peace of mind that, should anything go wrong, your products can be fixed or replaced quickly by a local workshop.
So many of our customers have told us that location is a deciding factor when choosing a supplier. Our bespoke timber windows and doors are made in the UK in our Nottingham-based workshop and you can see our team in action on our social media. A good business should be able to clearly demonstrate its products being made.
Timber is one of the most versatile materials available, offering many design options, from sleek contemporary styles to traditional designs perfect for listed buildings or conservation areas. We’ve even manufactured timber windows and doors based on sketches or photographs from the other side of the world. The possibilities are endless.
It is important to choose a style that complements the character of your property. Enhancing your home’s kerb appeal and preserving its value is just as important as personal style. Our team is always on hand to offer expert advice on design, finish, and colour matching, helping you find the perfect timber windows and doors for your home. And, if you need guidance, we’re on hand to discuss the finer details such as finish and colour matching.
Timber frames are well known to stand the test of time. Modern glazing has come a long way, and so installing new timber windows and doors will almost always improve energy efficiency in your home. Replacing your windows and doors is not just a cost, it is an investment that often leads to long-term savings on energy bills.
You can talk to our team about the different glazing options available. If you live in a listed building, there’s no need to rule out energy efficiency; a reputable timber window and door manufacturer should be able to work with planning to find a solution that ticks all the boxes. That’s exactly what happened when we created this stunning porch for a Grade II listed building.
As well as design style and efficiency, it’s important to consider security and a good manufacturer will be able to balance all of these factors. Ask questions of potential suppliers and find out all the details you can before making a purchase decision. An expert should be able to explain clearly how your timber windows and doors will be manufactured as well as security features.
The strength of the window and door frames is crucial, and the materials used should be durable, offering a solid barrier. There’s no reason why new windows and doors shouldn’t have modern multipoint locking systems, and your home insurance company is likely to favour this.
Good quality timber windows and doors, when correctly maintained, will last a lifetime. We frequently remove original timber windows that have survived for 100 years. But it’s a good idea to have a quality checklist to ensure you choose the best possible products. As well as important things such as efficiency and security, find out about the quality of the wood and other materials used and the skills of the team manufacturing the timber windows and doors.
Take a look at previous projects and find out what customers have to say about their experience, customer service and craftsmanship. There’s no better indicator of quality.
