Window Sets
From intricately detailed carved windows to sleek and contemporary designs, we’ve crafted windows of all shapes and sizes to suit a myriad of architectural styles.
While we harness the precision of modern machinery to cut mullions and lintels with exacting accuracy, it’s the skilled hands of our craftsmen with their hammer and chisel that breathe life into the finer details of each window.
Rooted in centuries of architectural tradition, the earliest stone mullioned windows in the north of England date back to the 16th century. Characterized by double splays both externally and internally, as well as arched lintels adorned with a delicate cavetto moulding. These windows serve as a testament to the enduring legacy of craftsmanship and design.
Mullions
The mullion is the vertical element between the glass panes, forming the division between units of a window. They are also commonly used between double doors.
Lintel/ head
The lintel refers to the horizontal stone piece located at the top of a window. It supports the weight of the structure above the window opening.
Sill
The sill is the bottom part of the window, serving as the base of the window frame where it meets the bottom of the glass.
Jambs
The jambs are the vertical side posts of a window or doorway, located at the sides of the window aperture.
