A few random photos of things going on.

Yesterday i had to empty the sawdust bins, which had completely overflowed.

If you have never cleaned up massive piles of sawdust, I suggest you try it just so you know you should avoid it.

Cleaning out the sawdust extractor after one of our bins overfilled. aaaaah sawdust, it gets everywhere.

Making new timber sashes based on the old ones given to us. A common issue for timber sashes is they rot in the rain over the years, you cant repair them – you need new ones!

Cedar Doorframes

Finished Product

Nothing fancy here, but here are 11 doorframes off to a building site. each is 3000 high with small hi lites and no sills.  To suit 2700 high doors.

Doorframes are made here on an almost daily basis, and though unexciting compared to some of our other work, is a staple of what we do here at THE WINDOW MAN.

Need a doorframe? whether standard or unusual sizes, contact us for a quote.
