WINDOWS AS FURNITURE
Quickslide’ s design team has added‘ Living Oak’- said to be one of the most authentic woodgrain foils ever developed- to the options for its Vertical Sliding Sash window.
The move is part of Quickslide’ s quest to encourage homeowners to consider windows and doors as furniture. Living Oak, with the unmistakeable silver-grey lustre of weathered vintage timber including authentic knots and hand-sawing grooves, is the latest addition to Quickslide’ s already comprehensive range of finishes.
In the continuing quest for authenticity Quickslide also prepares windows using a state of the art seamless welder. Combined with the embossed and distressed rustic woodgrain and a choice of traditional furniture, buyers can choose an authentic-looking period window.
Quickslide was one of the pioneers of bringing the classical Sliding Sash into the mainstream market, matching an authentic appearance with high-spec energy efficiency, security and weather resistance.
This latest development of the Quickslide sliding sash was shortlisted as‘ Window of the Year’ in the Build-It Awards.
