Description

Custom windows can include raking or curved windows, greenhouse, box and bay formats and glass block windows. Windows made in shapes outside the square or rectangular are manufactured from Residential or upgrade frames (Metro Series, APL Architectural Series etc) and technical information on those suites should be consulted.

Key Features
  • Curving of windows in plane is possible in several suites but confirmation of desired frame should be sought before specifications are prepared
  • Greenhouse, box and bay windows all project from the wall of a house
  • Greenhouse windows normally have a sloped glass top while a box window is capped by the eaves
  • All three formats can be ventilated with awning, casement or sliding windows, while full height bays can incorporate doors
  • Glass block windows are available using an 80mm-thick block
  • A range of glass block patterns is available
  •  Compatible with adjoining residential windows and doors through the use of a coupling bar
  • The glass block system has 90° or 135° corner posts available.
