CONSERVATION & HERITAGE WINDOWS & DOORS

Bespoke joinery for conservation projects


Salisbury Joinery has hand-crafted bespoke timber windows and doors for listed buildings and conservation projects for over 40 years. Our considerable expertise comes from working with building contractors on renovation projects across London and the South; from minor replacement work to significant heritage property renovations, including properties of special historical interest.

Finely crafted by our expert joiners from quality timbers, our windows and doors are designed to reproduce the architectural style and character of period properties. Depending on your type of property, project goals and any planning approval consents required we offer two main options:

  • Conservation Range – suitable for period properties in conservation areas or new properties that seek to achieve a period look, our Conservation range comes with slimline double glazing and face-applied glazing bars. Our Conservation+ range comes with true solid glazing bars, also on slimline glazing.

  • Heritage Range – suitable for listed buildings and properties with planning approval constraints, our Heritage range is hand crafted to closely replicate original joinery allowing for authentic replacement, supplied with single glazing and full glazing bars.

What is a heritage window?

A heritage window or door is designed to replicate the appearance and functionality of original windows and doors found on properties from past architectural periods. They are often made from wood and they come in a variety of styles, including sash windows, casement windows and bay windows.

As Heritage window and door manufacturers we meticulously study and replicate the proportions of classic designs, ensuring they are in harmony with the architectural style of the property.

Our heritage window and doors combine traditional aesthetics with modern materials and construction techniques, resulting in durable, energy-efficient windows that last for generations. 

 

What are the applications of heritage windows and doors?

Restoration projects – Heritage windows and doors are often used in the restoration of listed buildings, historic properties and properties in conservation areas. Planning consent is normally required when changing the windows and doors on these types of properties.

Replacement Windows - For homeowners seeking to replace old, worn-out windows and doors with better performing alternatives, heritage windows offer a balance of traditional aesthetics and modern performance. In particular modern glazing and weather seals can greatly improve energy efficiency helping to reduce utility costs.

Character New Builds - Heritage windows are also suitable for many new properties built to a traditional design such as Georgian or Victorian, adding elegance and character to the homes exterior.
