Bradford Homes: Different types of glazing

If you're fitting new windows, you can choose from a range of glazing options, ranging from coloured glass designs to etched glass and frosted glass designs. Patterned and frosted windows are popular windows for WCs, shower rooms and bathrooms to provide privacy. Various types of decorative glass such as coloured or stained panels and leaded patterns, which can be diamonds, square or swirled designs, is an attractive glazing embellishment for windows and doors. Buildings that are listed usually require replicas of existing window designs to be made when new windows are being fitted as part of a renovation project to maintain the character of the property.

Different types of exterior doors for Bradford Homes

A variety of different sorts of exterior doors are available to choose between when you're either replacing old doors or you are fitting exterior doors as part of an extension or conversion project. For choices of exterior doors that work well overlooking a garden or terrace, you could consider sliding patio doors, bi-fold wooden frame doors or French doors. When replacing front or back doors or building porches, many people tend to choose composite doors, which is largely because energy efficiency is up to 6 times better than solid wood doors. Another material to consider is a uPVC door, that provides a broad colour choice and different finishes from brown wood grain effect to white. Five lever mortice locks are usually fitted as standard to uPVC doors, which tend to be popular due to increased security compared to wood doors that have locks with single points.

Increasing your home's energy efficiency

Installing replacement doors and windows can be effective at increasing your property's energy efficiency by prevent drafts around openings and providing insulation against the outdoors. One of the biggest improvements you can make is removing single glazed windows and fitting double glazed panes, or for even better insulation, you could consider triple glazed units. More effective seals are now used on new windows thanks to technological developments and higher quality glass is used, therefore reducing heat loss. External doors are also responsible for heat loss, which is why door replacement can reduce your energy bills. Sun rooms and conservatories can provide a buffer from cold air outside, and building porches can do the same at the front of your property, by increasing insulation and benefiting from sun shining through windows, warming your house. As a result of the large expanse of glass these extensions include, choosing high quality glass for doors and windows is recommended.

Window choices for Bradford Homes

Your first choice when replacing existing windows or as part of an extension or project, new windows are being installed, is regarding the best type of windows for your property. The majority of new window installations are casement windows, with double and single side hung models and top hung versions available, and top vents can also be included for ventilation. You could also consider installing sash windows. In the main, sash windows are made from wood and can be painted or stained which will protect them from weathering and enable them to blend in with existing colouring of wood inside and outside your home. French windows, where both panes open, can give increased ventilation, or you could choose tilt/turn windows which are flexible, enabling you to open them a small amount or they can be rotated 180 degrees which makes them easy to clean. Co-ordinating window cills and boards can be purchased for uPVC windows and the fact they are low maintenance is an added bonus, as staining, painting and varnishing isn't required.
