DOORS & WINDOWS

A True Tudor Residence

» SUSSEX-BASED NUGLAZE HOME Services recently completed a replacement window and door project with Residence 9 , in a period home with true Tudor detailing , including leaded top lights , structural corner posts and two oriel bay windows , all in the No . 10 Black finish .
In years gone by such installations were the domain of timber only and it is only with the introduction of R9 , part of The Residence Collection , that this traditional material has been challenged . R9 remains the only true timber casement alternative window as this
project shows and all the windows , doors and ancillaries were supplied by locally based manufacturer , Tradesmith .
The unique corner property featured two oriel bay windows , an upstairs balcony and door and other unique glazing features , which had to be completely sympathetic to the fabric of the building . Authentic butt joints , the use of black monkey tail handles and peg stays , also added to the period nature of this unique property .
Sarah Hitchings , sales and marketing director of The Residence Collection commented : “ This unique Tudor type property is the perfect showcase for R9 , with the dual colour option of No . 10 Black and Grained White featured throughout . It also proves that we are more than a credible alternative to timber , yet with the longevity , green credentials , and energy efficiency properties of PVCu .
“ With consumers looking to enrich their homes with a better living space , there ’ s never been a better time in which to look at our valued added systems and outstanding marketing assets to help close more sales with better margins .”
