ADVERTISEMENT Keep an original outlook Classic Designs recreate traditional windows with modern technology P eople involved in refurbishing historic, or period buildings in conservation areas would prefer to retain the original windows wherever possible; but often this is not feasible when the windows are beyond repair. The solution is to manufacture a reproduction window identical in size, section and mouldings, whilst at the same time adding the benefits of double glazing, draught-proofing and improved security. Any original window, whatever its style can be copied. Classic Designs of Coventry, who have opened up Sales Offices in West London and West Yorkshire, can manufacture exactly to your requirements, either traditional casement or sliding sash and with Georgian or Victorian style glazing bars. Stained glass, genuine or simulated leaded lights are all within their speciality. Classic Designs' sash windows are operated by heavyduty spring balances, which are manufactured to counterbalance safely the increased weight of the double glazing of each particular sash, which need no future adjustment or maintenance. Each sash operates on nylon bearers and has double-draught seals, ensuring quality windows that are rattle free and draught-proof, with permanent ease of operation. By using only the finest timbers, Classic Designs ensure no twisting ~r warping which could effect the smooth operation of the sliding sash windows. Georgian and Victorian windows can now have sealed unit double glazing but retain traditional design and style. Classic Designs' patented narrow "glazing bar" system now affords all hitherto unavailable benefits of double glazing and draught-sealing without spoiling the original look of your property. Especially with period houses in conservation areas. Classic Designs' narrow "glazing bar" has been hailed by architects, Planning Officers, and others involved in the refurbishment of traditional properties as an answer to the age old problem of combining modern technology with traditional style. Properties of character can have their charm destroyed by modern windows or attempts to create 'Georgian' style by using the pseudo-glazing bar fitted between the panes of the sealed unit. The Classic Designs narrow "glazing bar" provides the solution, giving a truly faithful reproduction of Georgian style windows and of course French Doors. Our glazing bar system gives an additional advantage of security. The fitting of Classic Designs' narrow "glazing bar" system is almost as effective as built in security grilles.
