Heritage Flush Sash Window Replacement at Boarhurst Outdoor Centre

Boarhurst Outdoor Centre approached us looking for a window replacement solution that would enhance the building’s security, energy efficiency, and long-term performance while preserving its traditional appearance. This project showcases how modern flush sash windows can be seamlessly integrated into a heritage-style property, delivering all the benefits of contemporary glazing without compromising the character of the original architecture.

Project Overview

Boarhurst Outdoor Centre is a heritage-style stone building nestled in a picturesque setting. Our team was tasked with replacing the existing windows with a modern, secure, and energy-efficient alternative, without compromising the building’s historic charm. The project involved the supply and installation of 16 Infinity flush sash windows, including several arched-head units tailored to match the unique apertures of the original stonework.

The Challenge: Replacing Windows Without Losing Character

This wasn’t just a straight window swap. Maintaining the architectural integrity of the building was crucial—particularly when dealing with arched stone surrounds and traditional timber window aesthetics. The client wanted a solution that offered the appearance of traditional joinery, with the benefits of modern performance and security.

Our Flush Sash Window Solution

To meet the brief, we specified and installed Deceuninck white uPVC windows with Infinity seamless welds, a high quality finish that delivers both clean lines and durability. Each window was built to size, including the beautifully arched frames, to ensure a perfect fit within the original masonry.

Security and safety were a key focus too. All windows were fitted with:

• Avantis Kubu Superior multipoint locking systems
• Laminated security glass, the plastic interlayer maintains glass integrity on impact
• Glass locks and hinge guards for additional peace of mind

To retain the charm of the original timber windows, we incorporated astragal glazing bars, a subtle but striking detail that complements the centre’s traditional aesthetic.

Installation Process

Our team coordinated closely with the centre’s management to ensure minimal disruption to operations. Installation was carried out with care and precision, respecting the building’s heritage and the surrounding environment. We maintained a tidy site and clear communication throughout the process.

Although the main point of contact was Mark Jones, we’ll include his testimonial once received to complete the story.

The Result

The finished installation not only met but exceeded expectations, delivering a seamless blend of period style and contemporary performance. The flush sash profiles look right at home in the building’s heritage stone facade, while the enhanced security features and thermal performance offer long term value to the client.
