Fixed Picture Windows in Northamptonshire
When the glass is the design. A fixed pane in a thermally-broken aluminium frame with sightlines as slim as 30mm — up to 2.7m tall — the frameless-look window we sit above bifolds, between structural piers or at the head of a stairwell.
Fixed Picture Windows designed around ironstone villages, deep reveals and heritage colours that satisfy conservation officers.
Northampton, Kettering, Wellingborough, Corby and Daventry — we've been fitting windows and doors across Northamptonshire for two decades, with particular experience in ironstone conservation villages.
Northamptonshire's ironstone villages need windows that respect the building — deep reveals, heritage colours, subtle profiles. Our flush casements and painted composite doors have been accepted throughout the county's conservation areas.
Energy-efficient fixed picture windows installed across Northamptonshire achieve whole-window U-values of 0.9–1.4 W/m²K, with the exact frame and glazing specification confirmed after survey.

What sets our fixed picture windows apart in Northamptonshire.
Up to 2.7m Tall
A single fixed lite up to 2.7m tall and 3.5m² per panel with standard toughened double glazing. Larger sizes are possible with structural glass and site lifting.
30mm Sightlines
Ultra-slim 30–45mm sightlines on a fixed frame — up to 40% more visible glass than an equivalent uPVC unit.
No Moving Parts
Because they don't open, there are no hinges, gaskets or locking points to fail — a fixed picture window will outlast every other window on the property.
Above Bifolds & Sliders
The natural pairing for a bifold or sliding door — a fixed head light above brings full-height light without adding another opening door.
Any RAL Powder Coat
Any RAL finish, single or dual colour, Qualicoat Class 2 powder coat guaranteed for 20 years.
Structural Glazing Compatible
Fixed picture windows can be integrated into structural glazing runs, glass-to-glass corners and frameless roof lights — we supply and coordinate the assembly.

Common questions from Northamptonshire homeowners.
- How big can a fixed picture window be?
- Up to 2.7m tall and roughly 3.5m² per panel with our standard glass. Larger sizes are possible using structural glass with additional lifting equipment on site — we survey and quote separately for anything over that.
- Can you fit one above bifold doors?
- Yes — a fixed head light above a bifold or slider is our most common configuration for full-height rear extensions. We coordinate the head detail, structural opening and colour match as one order.
- Do fixed windows meet Building Regs for ventilation?
- A fixed window on its own doesn't provide ventilation, so Approved Document F requires another means of purge ventilation in the room. On a rear extension this is usually satisfied by the adjacent bifold or slider. We check the room-by-room ventilation plan at survey.
- How do fixed windows differ from opening windows?
- Fixed windows have no gearing, hinges or opening gaskets, so they achieve slimmer sightlines and have fewer moving parts. They are ideal where another opening already provides ventilation.
