Hardwood arched traditional casement Window
This photo shows a period arched flush casement window project with astragal bars. In this case the client chose laminated hardwood on hardwood sills. This combination significantly increases the life span, strength, and dynamic stability of the windows i.e., they won’t twist or warp. The windows were factory painted and glazed in the factory for longer life. Sprayed with four coats of Teknos microporous paint (water based), they won’t need repainted for 8 – 12 years. When it does eventually come to repainting, there is no need to burn off the old oil paint, instead you can paint straight on top of the old paint (after a light sanding with wire wool), saving time and money. They are double glazed using the latest generation, warm, double glazing. The best possible draught proofing is achieved using double Q-lon seals and high compression hinges and locking.
