What makes up a Fairview window?

by Editorial Team - Build Your Dream

Fairview Windows and Doors

There are just four parts — but such important parts, because the windows and door you choose will affect the appearance, temperature, light, space, airflow and the security of your home.

Window Frames

Consider the frame —depending on your project there are the following choices:
  • The Fairview standard residential frame provides excellent value for money.
  • The 40mm Architectural Suite has been designed for the large imposing house where more substantial joinery would look appropriate. The larger frame can deal successfully with oversize windows and doors.
  • Timberview timber / aluminium offers a traditional look. The internal timber profiles are warm cedar timber and the external aluminium is low maintenance.

Next consider the opening style of each window or door and where Le Vent should be installed for passive ventilation.

Finally there is the shape of the window, to add the dramatic touch, Fairview windows can curve or arch, they can be facetted or louvred or there can be glass blocks.

Window Colours

The powdercoating colour choices are numerous. The most popular colours are the most cost effective. When choosing a colour for Fairview joinery it generally either contrasts or complements the house cladding. Remember the colour affects both the inside and outside of the house.

Glass

There are many ways to be smart with glass. Differing glass types can:

  • reduce condensation
  • lower heating and cooling costs
  • prevent soft furnishings fading
  • reduce irritating noise
  • work as safety glass

Window Hardware

There is a range of security options, security mesh doors, security locks, stays, bolts, and restrictors. All of them serve one purpose “peace of mind”.

Black is the standard hardware colour for aluminium joinery, but an often-preferred option is to colour match hardware to the powdercoated frame.
