uPVC casement windows
The window most British homes are built around: warm, secure, easy to live with and made to the millimetre in our own factory.
Windows
A simple idea, made properly
A casement window is a frame with one or more hinged sashes that open outwards, usually alongside fixed panes. It suits almost every style of house, seals tightly against the weather and gives you the widest choice of layouts, which is why it is the window we make more of than any other.
Ours are built from the Eurocell Eurologik 70mm system, a chamfered multi-chambered profile with a strong record in British homes. We cut, weld, glaze and check every frame ourselves, so the window that arrives is the one that was measured for your opening and not the nearest stock size.
A-rated as standard
28mm argon-filled double glazing with warm-edge spacers. Upgrade to triple glazing for A+ performance.
Locked in several places
Multi-point locking, key-locking handles and internally glazed frames so the glass cannot be removed from outside.
Made to measure
Every frame is manufactured to the surveyed size of your opening, in the layout you choose.
Next to no upkeep
No painting, no sanding. A wipe with soapy water a few times a year keeps frames looking new.
Built on a profile we trust
Eurologik is a 70mm deep profile with six internal chambers. Those chambers trap air and slow the passage of heat, which is where much of the thermal performance comes from. The chamfered outer edge gives a clean, modern line that sits comfortably on both new and older properties.
The profile carries BBA certification and is made with a core of recycled PVC-U, so there is post-consumer material in every frame without any compromise on the visible surfaces.

Arranged around the way you live
Choose where the openers go and how they hang. Side-hung sashes give the widest opening and suit bedrooms and escape routes. Top-hung sashes are ideal above worktops and in rooms where you want ventilation in the rain. Fixed panes bring in the most light for the least money.
Larger openings can be split into two, three or more panes, stacked with top lights, or coupled together to span a wide wall. Our surveyor will advise on fire-escape openings, safety glass and ventilation so the finished window meets Building Regulations as well as looking right.
Glass that earns its keep
The sealed unit does most of the work in a modern window. Our standard unit is 28mm thick with a low-emissivity coating, an argon gas fill and a warm-edge spacer bar that reduces heat loss, and condensation, around the perimeter of the glass.
Where you want more, choose 36mm triple glazing for system U-values as low as 0.8 W/m²K, toughened safety glass where the regulations call for it, or one of five Pilkington obscure patterns for bathrooms and front doors.

Opening styles
Choose how each window opens
Every frame is made to order, so you decide which panes open and which way. These are the layouts we are asked for most.
Side hung
Hinged at the side and opening outwards. The everyday casement.
Top hung
Hinged at the top, so it can stay open in light rain.
Fixed
A non-opening pane for the most glass and the best value.
Opener beside fixed
One opening sash next to a fixed pane. The most common two-pane layout.
Top light over fixed
A small top-hung vent above a larger pane, ideal for night ventilation.
Opener, fixed, opener
A fixed centre pane with a side-hung sash on each side.
French casement
Two sashes that open from the middle with no central post in the way.
Tilt and turn
Tilts inwards at the top for air, or swings fully in for cleaning.
Drawn as seen from outside. The point of each triangle shows the hinged side. Almost any combination of these can be made in one frame.

Questions
Good things to ask
Straight answers to the questions we hear most about this product.
How long do uPVC casement windows last?
A well-made, properly installed uPVC window should give decades of service. The frames need no painting and are guaranteed for 10 years, with sealed units guaranteed for 5 years and hardware for 2. Hinges, handles and gaskets are all replaceable, so a window can be serviced rather than replaced if a part wears.
Are your windows A-rated?
Yes. Our standard double-glazed casement achieves an A energy rating, comfortably ahead of the minimum that Building Regulations require for replacement windows. Triple glazing takes the rating to A+.
Can I have a different colour inside and out?
Yes. Any of our colours can be supplied on the outside with white on the inside, which keeps rooms bright and matches most interior woodwork. You can also have the colour on both faces.
Do new windows need trickle vents?
In most cases, yes. Since June 2022 the Building Regulations in England expect replacement windows to include background ventilation. We will confirm what your home needs at survey and fit slim, colour-matched vents where they are required.
