Dane End Cottage

Impressing Your Visitors

With many homes looking similar with standardised windows, doors and other aesthetic similarities, this client has opted to keep a traditional look for their Hertfordshire cottage. We have achieved this with our Residence 9 collection, with the flush windows, French doors and composite doors looking traditional and sophisticated. Each window in the Residence Collection is hand-finished in line with the customer’s requirements, so the attention to detail in the window of this house is incredible.

The Residence Collection spans three different styles, each of which can be tailored to a specific application. They are traditional, heritage and modern, with each one coming with a unique set of benefits.

As well as providing the cottage with a cost-effective double glazing installation, the value and performance of the property has increased.

This is beneficial to the customer should they wish to put their home on the market, as this cottage stands out from other properties in the neighbourhood and its character will attract the attention of prospective buyers.

The Benefits of the Residence Collection

There are several benefits that these Residence 9 windows and doors have brought to the clients other than looking traditional and being visually pleasing. The property will now benefit from:

• Improved Thermal Efficiency – This Dane End cottage will now benefit from a warmer, more comfortable home. Their previous windows would have required the homeowner to pump more central heating in their home to keep it at a warm temperature. Now the cottage will remain at a comfortable temperature, even in the coldest of winters. This cottage won’t suffer from draughts, water ingress or leaks as the double glazing and frames will combat these issues, keeping this cottage warm and dry.

• Long-Lasting – Unlike the traditional timber windows of old which were known to bend, warp, bow, crack and flake, this cottage won’t be blighted with any of these problems. All this window will require is the occasional wipe with a damp cloth to keep its good-as-new look.

• A Safer Home – Unlike the timber doors and windows of old, our Residence Collection has been made to the highest security standards. Our glass has been bonded to the sash and with the bead on the inside, contributing to the high-security performance of this window. The glass bonding significantly improves the overall strength of the product, with potential burglars unable to remove the glass from outside the cottage. Together with intelligent design details and screw retention reinforcements, locks and hinges, these doors and windows are secured firmly in position.
