What Are Crittall-Style Windows?
Slim profiles and sight lines associated with traditional steel-framed windows and doors are often referred to as Crittall-style windows. This architectural style was popular in the Victorian and Art Deco periods.
At Admiral Home Improvements, our robust yet slimline aluminium heritage windows have been designed specifically with refurbishment and renewal projects in mind. They are particularly suited to the replacement of Crittall-style windows in sensitive planning areas, but have also become a popular choice for more modern homes and businesses due to the timeless elegance of the styling.
They are available in a number of formats including fixed pane, sash, top/side-hung casement windows, and tilt and turn windows.
Our slimline aluminium heritage windows, or Crittall-style windows, have been designed and developed by the British manufacturer specifically to meet requirements of refurbishment and renewal projects, with many proven applications across refurbishment and heritage projects across the UK.
However, listed properties and designated conservation areas can have very specific requirements when it comes to renovating or replacing windows. It must be noted that each potential property renovation has its own set of circumstances, reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Yes, Crittall-style windows can be highly energy-efficient when installed with a suitable, properly sealed double-glazed unit. Modern aluminium windows are thermally broken using polyamide, an excellent insulator, to prevent heat loss.
The thermal conductivity of polyamide is 160 times better than the steel used in original steel-framed Crittall-style windows.
Powder-coated aluminium heritage window frames provide long-life performance with minimal maintenance. Even in harsh environments, such as coastal locations, aluminium Crittall-style windows will never deteriorate, rust or fade. A routine ‘wipe-clean’ is all that is necessary to keep the frames looking their best – no repainting or re-varnishing required.
We are seeing an increasing demand for aluminium heritage windows from home owners looking to honour the past with the timeless elegance of traditional style window with extremely modern good looks.
The slimline frames, clear sight lines, versatile modular nature of these windows along with their attractively low maintenance gives them real appeal to modern day home owners. Our team of experts can guide you in your decision-making around what might look best in your home.
