Windows & Doors for Heritage Homes

Heritage properties have many attractive features, and their classic appearance is timeless. The original windows and doors found in heritage homes often have a charming aesthetic but can not compete with modern designs. At Jewel Windows, we understand how special heritage homes are and why homeowners may be reluctant to replace the original windows and doors. Unfortunately, traditional designs can be difficult to maintain and can cause several issues over time - this is where we can help!

At Jewel, we supply several window and door profiles that are perfect for heritage homes. Our designs are a blend of contemporary features with traditional style and are designed to enhance your period property without removing any of its original characters.

Timber Alternative Doors for A Classic Style

Traditional timber door frames are in a league of their own. These old fashioned doors are brimming with historical charm and bring something a little bit special to the exterior of heritage homes. They may have superior style, but timber doors are known to have poor thermal efficiency and leave your home vulnerable to break ins.

The Jewel Residence Collection features the best timber replica systems available in the Surrey area. Our doors are made up of a nine chambered profile, ensuring excellent insulation all year round. There is no need to sacrifice classic style for effective thermal efficiency, as with the Residence Collection, homeowners can enjoy both.

Bespoke Door Designs for Period Properties

Heritage properties stand out from modern homes built today. These older properties often have features and accessories on their doors that aren’t commonplace in 21st century architecture. Our Residence Collection doors are made to order and can be manufactured to match the traditional aesthetic of your property.

To create a truly unique door from your property, the Residence Collection can be customised to meet your specific requirements. Choose from a range of handles, letter plates, spy holes and more to build a door that suits your home perfectly.

Whether you choose a single door or French doors, our customisable designs are a wonderful way to maintain heritage charm. Keep classic authenticity while also enjoying the many benefits of modern materials and structures.

Residence Collection Windows

With many properties today showcasing uPVC frames, replacing timber windows can feel like a difficult decision. If your heritage home has stunning original frames, it is no surprise that you don’t want to let go of this beautiful piece of history. Unfortunately, authentic timber windows are prone to discolouration, warping, flaking and other weather damage. While their appearance may be timeless, traditional wooden frames were not built to last.

At Jewel, we supply the best timber replica windows, effectively mimicking the design and authentic features of hardwood frames. Where older timber structures fail, the frames in our Residence Collection shine. If you choose our flush timber alternative windows, you can expect impressive thermal efficiency, a durable design and reassuring security measures. With our Residence Collection, your property can maintain its heritage look without the need for compromise.

Bespoke Sliding Sash Windows

Sash windows were popular here in the UK during the Georgian period, and their sliding design is still a desirable feature for homeowners today. Heritage homes with sash windows exude personality, and it can be a shame to replace the original frames. Unfortunately, as we mentioned earlier, timber frames can be difficult to maintain and replacing them with modern alternatives will ensure better performance over time.

Protecting the authentic appearance of a period property isn’t difficult when you choose our sliding sash windows. At Jewel, we work with the industry leading manufacturer Roseview to bring modern sliding sash windows with traditional accessories to our customers. With these windows, homeowners experience all the benefits of contemporary uPVC while also enjoying classic features such as astragal bars and run through horns. For homeowners who can't resist genuine timber frames, we also supply high end timber sliding sash windows that utilise modern glazing and craftsmanship to ensure a long lasting installation.

Vintage Style & Modern Performance

At Jewel, we are proud to supply windows and doors that not only provide high performance, but protect the classic appearance of heritage homes too. All of our Residence Collection windows and doors can be made to order, making it possible for our customers to enjoy modern double glazing, combined with a timeless design.

We blend vintage style with modern performance to ensure period properties maintain their classic appearance for many decades to come. We also guarantee that our durable and secure designs are built to last.
