With Over 30 Years Of Experience - We are The Experts


SD Glazing secondary Bespoke Window Panels involves the use of irregular angles and units with more than four sides. There are limitations but, it is possible to shape horizontal sliding units, vertical sliding units hinged casements, lift out units and fixed panes.
 
This allows sympathetic treatment of windows that are curved in the vertical plane and includes eyebrow windows, full centre arch, semi-circular openings and bulls-eye windows.

Vertical Sliding
 
Both the slim Series 20 and heavy duty Series 90 vertical sliding systems can have arched heads up to a full radius.
The frame construction and balance lengths will limit the travel of both sliding sashes and consideration must be given to access for cleaning and external window operation.
The minimum radius for Series 20 is 450mm and for Series 90, 500mm.
 
 
Hinged Casements
 
Heads can be curved up to a full radius with a minimum of 450mm.
Three sided curved casements allow the wings of semi-circular openings to be treated.
The espagnolette locking system cannot be fitted on the curve and face mounted catches/locks are fitted to three-sided units.
When a full radius casement is fitted within a barrel vaulted reveal the window height has to be reduced to avoid the shoulder of the opening vent binding on the reveal. An enlarged shaped timber sub frame is normally required.Fixed & Lift Out units
