Fixed-Glazed Windows

A sealed glass panel for a carefully planned composition

Fixed-glazed windows

Specify a made-to-measure fixed-glazed window in pine or oak, with optional aluminium cladding. Choose the colour, glazing and one of the named glazing-bar designs for your project. The window remains permanently closed and has no opening function.

Operation

Fixed glazed, non-opening

Material

Timber or aluminium-clad timber

Glazing

Coated insulating glass with argon fill

Configuration

Made to measure with colour choice

01

Function and everyday use

This is a fixed-glazed window and it does not open. It cannot swing, tilt or turn. In everyday use, the glazing stays closed and does not provide an operable opening. Establish early whether the position is intended solely for fixed glazing. If your project needs regular ventilation or an accessible opening here, allocate that requirement to an opening window or door designed for that purpose.

In a design containing several window elements, fixed glazing can serve its own purpose while a separately selected product type provides the required opening action. List these functions separately on your sketch: mark fixed-glazed units as permanently closed and identify opening units by their product title. This makes allocation easier where different windows are planned in one elevation. Visual proximity does not mean the elements share the same construction or operation.

Allow for future access to the glass, frame and gasket surfaces according to the actual installation situation. Consider both sides of the closed element and its position within the opening. Before selecting it, also check that permanent glazing suits the intended use. Make this functional decision before choosing material, colour or glazing bars, since design cannot replace a needed opening function. Record any required opening elements separately from the fixed glazing.

02

Construction, component dimensions and key specifications

Dimensions and numerical product specifications are collected here. The outer frame measures 105 × 57 mm. With aluminium cladding, the outer frame measures 115 × 57 mm. These figures describe the relevant frame component; they are not the width and height of the complete window or the building opening. Installation holes are specified as 14 mm. For planning, record the product size, opening size, junction detail and outer-frame profile as separate information.

Choose either double- or triple-pane insulating glazing. Both are described with heat-reflective coating, a CHR warm-edge spacer and argon fill. The glass gaskets are black rubber. The window carries CE marking and has a 5-year commercial warranty. Where Australian Consumer Law applies to a consumer transaction, this commercial warranty operates alongside, and does not exclude, those statutory rights. These details identify the offered product construction; the existing wall, junctions and other site conditions must also be assessed for the particular project. State the selected glazing clearly in your enquiry so the required version can be identified.

Material choices are pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak and aluminium-clad oak. “With aluminium cladding” describes a version of the relevant timber material, not a window made entirely from aluminium. Made-to-measure production is an available ordering choice, whereas the stated profile and drilling dimensions remain component data. In your enquiry, distinguish the required overall size from the construction specifications, making clear which dimension is project-defined and which describes an individual window component.

05

Recording dimensions and installation conditions clearly

Start with the actual building opening, rather than an estimated window size. Take measurements at several appropriate points and note what each figure refers to. In particular, distinguish the opening size from the required product size. Because the window can be made to measure, an unambiguous measurement basis is essential to the enquiry. Do not treat the outer-frame figures in the technical specifications as a finished external size. Use the same terms in the sketch, dimension schedule and accompanying text, so different reference points are not grouped under a vague term such as “window size”.

Record the intended location of the fixed-glazed element within the project as well. If windows and doors create one elevation, assign a distinct identifier to each item and link every measurement to its correct element. Include intended relationships to adjacent components, for example top or side lines that should align. Such notes express the design intention and belong separately from product dimensions. A straightforward sketch labelled top, bottom, left and right lets us follow location and orientation without uncertain wording.

Include the proposed junction and existing construction when assessing the opening. Check that the recorded dimensions suit the planned window position, and have the installation conditions assessed for the project. Where several elements work together, record each product separately before transferring the clearly identified dimensions to an overall elevation. This keeps opening size, product size and visual alignment lines distinct. Before enquiring, confirm that every dimension uses the same orientation and that sketch changes also appear in the matching dimension schedule.

06

Material, colour and visual coordination

For the material version, select pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak. First decide between pine and oak, then whether the chosen timber is to have aluminium cladding. This sequence avoids accidentally describing cladding as an independent solid material. If your project includes further windows or doors, give the complete material version for each element. Matching colour preferences do not replace a clear statement of timber species and cladding.

Colour is a separate ordering choice. Consider it alongside the material version and glazing-bar design, but name it independently. A bar-free version and one with horizontal, vertical or combined lines already differ through their design titles. Rather than selecting colour for the overall elevation alone, identify the required glazing-bar design as well. When adding to an existing window group, note which features are intended to align. Do not rely only on a reference image: state the selected colour and material version expressly in the enquiry.

With multiple elements, a simple overview helps when every position carries its product title, material version, colour and glazing-bar design. Treat the fixed glazing without assuming an opening direction. In a shared elevation, its selected design features and your stated alignment lines define its place instead. Check that recurring glazing-bar patterns genuinely use the same full design name. Where individual elements are deliberately different, mark those variations at the relevant position so they are not read as unintended inconsistency.

07

Related fixed-glazed and opening products

If you need another fixed-glazed shape for your project, consider the “Half-round Fixed-glazed Window” and the “Triangular and Sloping Fixed-glazed Window” as separate alternatives. Both are fixed glazed and non-opening according to their product titles. Compare them as individual products nevertheless, and use the precise title for each in your enquiry. Being part of the fixed-glazing range does not mean all further features automatically match this window.

Where an opening function is required, separately named window types are available for orientation, including outward-opening swing, top-hung and casement windows. Select between these products according to the needed function and treat each as its own configuration. Fixed glazing can sit beside an opening window in one project, but does not thereby gain an operating function. For such a combination, list each element with its complete product title, position and individual selections.

Outward-opening single-leaf patio doors and products in a heritage style are also listed as related types. They may suit a project requiring a door function rather than an exclusively fixed-glazed area, or an expressly named style variation. In an enquiry covering several product types, give each element its own title, position and required configuration. This keeps windows and doors functionally distinct within a shared elevation.

Preparing a complete, clear enquiry

Start with a short description of the project and identify the required element clearly as a “Fixed-glazed Window”. Add a labelled sketch where useful, showing the unit’s position and orientation. Enter the required dimension and state directly what it refers to. Use one consistent identifier for the same element in the sketch, dimension schedule and text. If several windows or doors are planned, list every product separately first, then bring the positions together in an overall elevation.

Next, select pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak and add the required colour. Then state the chosen insulating glazing as a separate item. For the glazing-bar pattern, use the full design name, especially where it expressly includes “glass-dividing”. Check each position individually when there are several elements instead of silently applying one shared selection to every window. This makes the material, cladding, colour, glazing and design combination traceable for each fixed-glazed unit.

Before sending your enquiry, use a final checklist. Confirm the product title, then make the position, orientation and basis of each dimension unambiguous. Record the complete material version, assigning colour, glazing and glazing-bar design to the correct element. List every other window or door separately, and ensure the sketch and written details use matching identifiers. When everything agrees, send the organised information so we can identify the fixed-glazed window and discuss whether its configuration is fully described.

Can the window be ordered made to measure?

Yes. Dimensions can be specified to suit the planned project. In your enquiry, state clearly what every measurement refers to and describe the installation situation. Outer-frame dimensions are component dimensions and must not be equated with the size of the proposed opening.

Which glazing options are available?

Choose between double- and triple-pane insulating glazing. Both versions have heat-reflective coating, a CHR warm-edge spacer and argon fill. State the required glazing separately for every window element.

Which material versions can I choose?

Available choices are pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak and aluminium-clad oak. Give the full version in your enquiry so the timber species and cladding can be identified clearly.

Can I choose the window colour?

Yes. Colour can be selected during configuration. Give your preferred colour together with the complete material version. The black rubber gaskets are independent of this and do not replace a separate window-colour choice.

Are all offered glazing bars glass-dividing?

No. The names expressly distinguish glazing bars from glass-dividing glazing bars. If you require a glass-dividing design, use the full name of the relevant version in your enquiry.

Does the window carry CE marking?

Yes. The window carries CE marking. Your project should nevertheless assess the opening, planned junctions and building requirements specifically.

Can fixed glazing be used for ventilation or as an exit?

No. It stays shut, so it provides neither ventilation nor an operable exit.

How do I choose a suitable glazing-bar pattern?

The available patterns range from no glazing bars to horizontal, vertical and combined arrangements. First decide whether you want no division, emphasis in one direction or several dividing lines. Then check whether the selected title expressly includes “glass-dividing”.

Configure your fixed glazing clearly

Prepare the dimensions of the intended opening, the required design, material version, colour and glazing, then send us your enquiry. We will discuss whether all details for the fixed glazing are clearly identified and form a complete configuration.
