Case Study: Private Residence - Guildford, Surrey

Project Synopsis: Slim EB24 steel windows light up this glorious house!

Occupying an elevated position above the city of Guildford stands this wonderful house, which was built in the early 1900s. Individually designed and constructed to a very high specification, the numerous windows and doors (over three floors) allowed plenty of light to flood into the property and to take advantage of the fantastic surrounding views.

Windows from Clement’s EB24 system with rectangular leaded lights were used to replicate the original fenestration. As well as the new windows being in keeping with the character of the property, the multi point locking system chosen by the client brought extra security. The new windows also increased the thermal performance of the property as all windows and doors now have insulated glass, argon filled units.

Four stunning French style double doors have been fitted, giving easy access to the garden. And as many of the original timber subframes were in good order, a benefit to the client was that many of these could be kept and only a small number needed replacing. The client was very happy with the end result.

"I would just like to say how pleased we are with our windows, they have improved the appearance of the whole house and look fantastic. I would also like to thank the installation team who were friendly and efficient, completing the job ahead of schedule."
