The new face of Signature-Windows

At Signature Windows we are always working hard to make it easier for you the customer to find the information and products that you require. To this end we are pleased to announce the brand new signature windows website which we hope will make your visit to our website more enjoyable and informative.

We felt that the old website was starting to look a bit dated and did not portray the quality and craftsmanship of signature’s windows, doors and conservatories.

We have made our website more dynamic and pleasing to the eye as well as reconstructing the websites navigation system to allow you to reach the information and products that you want in a maximum of 3 clicks!

Perhaps the biggest major change to our site is the exciting new galleries, which give the user the ability to scroll or click through a carousel of stunning images showcasing the quality and diversity of Signature-windows.

We are constantly changing our website so please do not hesitate to give feedback on our hard work so we can tailor the website to be more friendly to you.

Double Glazing to Slow Global Warming

Double glazing is a much more advanced window system than single glazing.  It helps keep heat within your property and lowers your heating bills. It works using a simple method of having two panes of glass with a space inbetween. This air gap can be filled with argon, krypton or left just as air and works as insulation from the harsh outdoor elements. The small gap has to be water tight otherwise the whole unit has to be replaced because condensation can gather between the two glass panes making the double glazing ineffective.

Recently the climate change has been more noticeable as the planet is getting warmer in the winter period or cooler in the summer, this is known by the government as global warming. Due to global warming the government are advising all people to“go green” to help lower the carbon footprint of your home helping to slow down the on-going processes of global warming. Double glazing can help slow down this process as it saves a lot of energy on your heating by retaining heat through two layers of glass filled with gas. Having double glazing has the equivalent energy saving properties as turning off your heating for a month every year.

In the current economic climate it is essential to save money wherever possible and heating bills can be reduced dramatically (over 50%) by having double glazing. This is because the heat produced is retained within the property meaning the heating does not need to be turned up so high or on for so long. Double glazing is so energy efficient that due to the money saved, they will have paid for themselves over a 7 year period.

Europe’s most energy efficient window – Now available!

[The full article appears in March's Windows Active magazine, 2011.]

Signature energy efficient window

Signature’s Danny Williams was looking for something new to set him apart from the competition. So he set out to make the perfect energy efficient window. “There is nothing that can replace great products, backed by great service.” And that is how he intends to make sure that his customers will enjoy a key differential. And the key to Signature Windows setting itself and its customers apart from the rest of the pack is what Danny unflinchingly calls ‘The most advanced window available today.’ “I have developed The Signature High Performance Window, that will, quite simply, offer advantages over every other frame available: better performance, easier fitting and, still crucial to homeowners, it is great looking too!”

Of course, performance can be measured and Danny knows that as a proponent of Window Energy Ratings. “There are key characteristics that we know are widely popular and we have improved upon these with our design. A slimmer, well shaped profile and bead which, when coupled with the inherently stronger section, offers a significantly greater glass area. This is very important when replacing smaller windows and equal sightline frames such as bay windows. These ensure that the window looks instinctively different and generally more attractive.”

In the key area of thermal performance Danny says that the sash, with its sophisticated cell structure that he designed himself, will allow the production of a C Rated frame with no gas or warm edge spacer, and an A Rating with gas and warm edge, both ratings achieved without the need for expensive low iron glass, thus alleviating the condensation that is often a problem associated with this type of glass.

“I wanted something that set Signature’s product apart.” explained Danny. “My window is an exceptional product – well I would say that wouldn’t I? But the benefits are very significant and easily demonstrated, especially to homeowners.”
