Today we installed 8.76 OBSERVA glass into c-channel framing we had put up a few days earlier.  It is in a medical clinic. the staff can see into the patients room, without the patients unable to see back into their office.

this type of glass works best when you have a dark internal room, looking out into a bright room.

Commercial shopfront replacement

Finished Product, Work in progress

OK, this job was to replace damaged windows and doors (fire damage) with new commercial, clear anodise frames.

glass was 6.38 clear laminate, except the 2 larger panes which were a hefty 10.38

original shopfront. hard to see from here but its all been damaged in an internal fire

fire destroyed this rather large building.

Original frames moved out.

the new shopfront being installed in place.

Final result of the job. A few angles / trims/ flashings being made up and then will be installed, but otherwise our job is done.

Finished Product, Work in progress

Im not in the office much lately – too many installs where im needed to give a hand. So here are just a few more photos of some of the things going on around now

Bay Window install

Finished Product, Uncategorized, Work in progress

Yesterday myself, Tom and Andrew installed this bay window (and another double window which ill add photos later).  The original window was rotting away and falling apart.  White cathedral glass on top colonial sashes, clear laminate on bottom panels. Sides are fixed/dummy sashes with the middle panel able to be lifted up (screens not in photo but sit on outside.)

Factory full of frames + more

Finished Product, Work in progress

Well i keep getting emails and cold calls saying i need to update my website.  yet it seems to be doing ok.

Today i thought id post a couple of photos of our factory floor, a sash i re-beaded this morning and a close up of a lift up window – you get to see the beautiful grain of cedar up close.  lucky you.

this sash with grey glass was originally putty glazed. client asked to remove the putty and rebead with custom bevelled beads. much easier to paint.

all the frames stacked up to give some workspace for more.

close up of a single hung lift up window. inside view (you see the sash lift handle) and double glazed. You can see the finish of the cedar timber is very beautiful.

Aluminium install

Uncategorized

This morning we removed 2 rotten timber framed louvre windows and replaced them with our aluminium residential sliding windows.  Flange and angle to finish, with some timber beading to go on the inside. i left the lads to finish the job once we had the larger one screwed in.  The owner was pretty happy and has asked us to quote for more along the side of the house.

Still here – 2019 kicking on

Finished Product, Uncategorized, Work in progress

Well late december on the very last job for the year i managed to cut my hand (snapped razer blade).  An operation, a cast and some nerve damage was my end of year.  However i am mostly mended and we have been back at TWM since early Jan. Although we make aluminium, it is the timber side which is very busy at the moment.

Some of this work is headed for rural SA, and into Victoria.  As the years go by we are finding that we are doing more work for interstate clients as well.
