Listed buildings hold a special charm and historical significance, but with that comes responsibility and limitations. So, when it comes to upgrading windows and doors, homeowners must find a way to preserve the tradition, whilst improving energy efficiency, security, and functionality. Here at Glassier, we specialise in providing advanced window and door solutions that meet the needs of listed and heritage homes without compromising on performance.
Navigating and planning regulations can be a challenge; that is why we offer a range of windows and doors specifically designed for keeping the traditional charm of your Worcestershire home. These include timber windows and doors, French casement windows, and traditional sliding sash windows.
Timber Windows and Doors
For listed buildings, timber windows and doors remain the gold standard when it comes to authenticity. Our bespoke timber windows and doors are crafted using high-quality materials that replicate the look and feel of the original Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian properties. Each timber window or door is tailored to suit the architectural detailing of your property. But behind the timeless exterior lies modern innovation. Our timber is made with high-performance glazing and low moisture content to prevent movements and microporous paint for a high-quality finish. To reduce draughts and improve thermal efficiency, our timber windows and doors are installed with double glazing, helping homeowners stay warm in the harsh Worcestershire weather. With the same level of security as our uPVC and aluminium products, you can have peace of mind in your property with our highly secure timber windows and doors.
French Casement Windows & Doors
French Casement windows are another popular choice for upgrading windows in listed buildings, especially where light and ventilation are a priority. Due to their dual-opening configuration, they provide uninterrupted views and an unbeatable traditional appearance ideal for cottages and rural homes. At Glassier, our French casement windows are designed to mirror traditional wooden frames while incorporating advanced features such as multi-point locking and energy-efficient glazing. Available in a range of finishes, they can offer the flexibility needed to satisfy local planning authorities while improving home comforts and usability. They are also available in your choice of uPVC, aluminium, and timber, making them low maintenance as well as durable.
Sliding Sash Windows & Doors
Sliding sash windows are often an iconic feature in listed properties. Our expertly engineered sash windows preserve the elegance of traditional designs, with options for cords and weights or modern spiral balances, depending on your project’s requirements. They incorporate increased thermal insulation and draught-proofing to ensure the building meets contemporary energy standards. As these windows are available in uPVC and aluminium, they offer you the highest level of energy efficiency and security.
