As the name suggests, the Heritage Collection is a range of elegant windows and doors that are packed with the characteristics and charm of period timber windows
Less obvious perhaps is that every window and door shown throughout this brochure is manufactured, not with timber but using a specialist range of advanced PVC-u profiles
Considerable care has been taken to capture the charm and elegance of timber, even down to the tactile woodgrain finish, but combine this with the advanced low maintenance qualities associated with modern day PVC-u products
This versatile collection includes a number of options from the fundamental choice of sash style through to your choice of finish from the subtle colour palette. The result of this is a range that will suit a multitude of property styles and this will be evident as you browse though the brochure
In previous years it was a given that new windows would always be replaced with like-for-like, which in most cases meant white PVC-u
But in recent years there has been a colour revolution and whilst white PVC-u is still going strong, today there is a myriad of other options available from dark anthracite greys, through to beautiful and elegant creams, all the way through to soft greys and greens
Regardless of your property style and age the Heritage Collection allows you to make a statement with colour on the outside but still maintain a fresh but subtle white woodgrain finish on the inside. French Grey or Agate Grey might work to enhance your property from the outside, but white is incredibly versatile as an interior colour and works well with just about any colour scheme, which will inevitably change over time
Consider the character of your property – some properties in the UK will be bound by listed building rules that prohibit certain decisions around a property’s exterior appearance – while this is unlikely to be the case in many instances, it’s always wise to consider the age and style of your property before you make your final decision
There are many properties in the UK that would really benefit from the use of these alternative shades to enhance their period features – so don’t be afraid to explore this option
Likewise, if your mid-50s semi is crying out for a style statement, you might want to consider a smooth anthracite grey – against a traditional British brick, the grey is incredibly pleasing on the eye and can deliver an instant wow to any property

Here we have a beautiful example of Heritage Flush windows, installed in a four bedroom detached property in a conservation village
The property is less than 20 years old but has been designed to be in keeping with the style of the sixteenth century manor house in whose original driveway the house has been built
The owners knew they needed to replace the original windows and wanted to give their house the wow factor but were also mindful of the need to be sympathetic to the style of the older properties surrounding them in the village. That’s when they started looking at woodgrain effects and were introduced to the Heritage Collection
They opted for a Heritage Collection flush casement style in Ice Cream woodgrain on the outside face to create the impression of wooden windows. As with all Heritage woodgrain windows, the inside face is kept to a neutral White Woodgrain finish for a bright and spacious feel and to complement neutral décor
To the front, the owners chose to have two horizontal Georgian bars to add character to the property and to reflect the traditional styles of many of the houses in the village. To the rear they wanted an uninterrupted view of the garden, so decided not to have Georgian bars on those windows
All three options utilise the same thermally efficient chambered outer frame and all provide a beautiful white woodgrain ovolo sculptured finish on the inside.
Equally, all options include dummy sashes on any fixed windows, providing a balanced appearance and equal sight lines between your chosen configuration of fixed and opening windows. All options are also available in the same Heritage range of colours and with the same optional finishing touches such as Georgian bar detailing and your choice of elegant furniture

This however is where the similarities end and the clear distinction between the three sash options becomes apparent. Whilst the rebated sash lips over the outer frame giving a picture frame effect, the flush sash remains in line with the outer frame offering a slimmer appearance.
You then have the option of GENUS, offering scribed and milled butt joints to the outer frame and sash for the truly authentic timber look.
