Heritage Steel-Look Windows in Buckinghamshire
The look of an original 1930s Crittall or 1950s factory window, delivered in thermally-broken aluminium with A-rated glazing. Slim 20mm astragal bars, matte black powder coat and the same tight sightlines the originals became famous for — without the rust, the cold bridge or the maintenance.
Heritage Steel-Look Windows designed around Chilterns AONB properties, painted flush profiles and conservation-friendly detailing.
Buckinghamshire's mix of Chiltern countryside and market towns calls for windows and doors that respect both the setting and modern performance. We install throughout Amersham, Beaconsfield, Marlow and Aylesbury.
Many of our Buckinghamshire projects sit within the Chilterns AONB or conservation areas. Our heritage flush casements and timber-effect finishes are frequently accepted where UPVC once wasn't.
Energy-efficient heritage steel-look windows installed across Buckinghamshire 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 heritage steel-look windows apart in Buckinghamshire.
Authentic 20mm Astragal Bars
Slim mechanical grid bars that replicate original steel window proportions — 20mm on horizontal and vertical intersections, applied through-frame with duplex-butt jointing.
Matte Black Powder Coat
The signature finish — RAL 9005 matte black powder coat, or any RAL to match architect specification. Qualicoat Class 2 guaranteed for 20 years.
Thermally-Broken Aluminium
34mm polyamide thermal break inside the aluminium profile — no cold bridge, no condensation, U-values from 0.9 W/m²K. The original steel windows had none of this.
Casement or Fixed
Available as side-hung casements, top-hung vents, fixed lights and French pair configurations — matched across a full elevation.
Art Deco & Modernist Suited
The right window for warehouse conversions, factory conversions, 1930s Art Deco villas and contemporary modernist new-builds — anywhere a heavy timber sash would feel wrong.
PAS 24 Secured Locking
Concealed multi-point locking on all opening sashes and toughened inner glazing — modern security in a period-look frame.

Common questions from Buckinghamshire homeowners.
- Is this the same as a real Crittall window?
- It's an aluminium replica of a Crittall — the appearance is very close but the frame is thermally-broken aluminium rather than steel. Original Crittall (rebranded W20 or Corporate W20) is still available in real steel, with worse thermal performance and additional maintenance requirements.
- Are they suitable for a listed building?
- Sometimes — where the original windows were steel and the officer accepts an aluminium replacement. Some listed properties will require true steel; we can quote both options at survey.
- How is thermal performance vs the original?
- Substantially better. Original steel windows had U-values around 5.0 W/m²K and cold bridged badly. Our aluminium heritage profile achieves 0.9–1.4 W/m²K and eliminates the internal cold bridge entirely.
- What sizes are practical?
- Standard casement sashes up to 800mm × 1200mm, fixed lights up to 1400mm wide. Larger apertures are divided into ganged frames with structural mullions — the same way the originals were.
