FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Welcome to our FAQ page, where we’ve compiled answers to the most commonly asked questions to help you find the information you need quickly and easily.
Do Timberlook flush casement windows include the traditional uPVC diagonal weld ‘lines’?
No, Timberlook windows do not feature diagonal joints. Instead, we achieve the appearance of traditional timber ‘butt joint’ manufacturing using state-of-the-art Timberweld technology.
What colours are Timberlook flush sash windows and doors available in?
We offer a choice of 10 colours in addition to standard white frames. You can request a sample swatch of all the colours, or an offcut of a single colour for your trade project.
Can Timberlook windows feature an external bar to give the appearance of individual panes of glass?
Yes, the external bar is a narrow 22mm width, chamfered on the outside and ovolo on the inside, designed to cater to older properties with smaller windows. Choose from a horizontal ‘cottage bar’, a full grid, simple cross, or a custom design.
