Yes — and planners agree. Our heritage aluminium windows copy the slim sightlines of old steel and timber frames, with modern glass hidden inside.
The key detail is the astragal bar. This is the slim glazing bar that splits the glass into small panes. Ours is bonded to the outside of the glass, with a spacer bar inside the unit, so the grid looks solid and true — never stuck-on.
Pick the classic layouts: 6-over-6 Georgian, 2-over-2 Victorian, or a Crittall-style steel grid in jet black. We have fitted all of them in conservation areas, from Moseley terraces to Cotswold cottages and listed barns.
Heritage looks do not cost you comfort. The same 1.2 W/m²K double glazing sits behind those slim bars. Rooms that once shivered behind single glass become warm and quiet.
