Can timber windows meet modern security expectations?

Yes. Timber systems can be configured with modern locking and hardware options, including PAS 24-focused specification routes where required.

How energy efficient are modern timber windows?

You can typically select from standard colours, stain finishes and bespoke colour routes, including combinations designed for heritage-sensitive projects.

Do I need planning permission to replace timber windows?
