New cedar double glazed arched frame installed into a prepared opening. Client will redo final outside brickline and the inside finish. was originally a rollershutter . Installed today.


Can you see the steel posts just inside the frame – on both sides? this meant on-site notching of the sliding sill and head to suit, and then cladding the entire beam in cedar to blend/match.

That post next to the sliding door panel is the steel beam. it has been clad in cedar, and you can see the Kapur sill has also been patched/reblocked to look seemless. (the post is slightly wet from wiping the woodglue down).

The double-glazed panels ranged from 70-115kilograms.
Well, for a change for us we manufactured timber windows and doors, then the boss drove up to NSW with them, whilst myself (production manager) and our main installer flew across.
we spend the Easter break installing 3 hinged doors, a sliding door, new sashes for front existing windows, 2 new spiral balance hung lift up windows, an awning window, a large fixed lite window and a sliding window.
a mixture of double glazed glass and comfort plus low-E.



It was quite hard to get any good photos, due to the closeness of fences and trees etc.
Last week we installed 2 boxframe windows in cedar. I finally got some time to upload the pics. All in western red cedar, weights and pulleys box frame. top sash fixed, bottom sash lift up. flyscreen in timber on the outside. Glazed with double glazing with argon gas.
