SPECIALISTS IN BESPOKE SECONDARY GLAZING FOR THE HERITAGE SECTOR

Creating quieter, warmer and more
energy efficient properties - discreetly

CHAPELS, CHURCHES, HOTELS, MUSEUMS, PERIOD HOUSES, COTTAGES, SCHOOLS, HISTORIC BUILDINGS, CASTLES, LIGHTHOUSES…

In the UK, we love heritage properties, and we want to preserve their beauty and character for future generations.

However, the reality of occupying a Grade I or Grade II listed, historic or period building may be far from glamorous. Noise from busy roads, draughts, and rising heating costs in winter are challenges that make life uncomfortable.

TAILORMADE SECONDARY GLAZING SOLUTIONS FOR BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS

Period windows are rarely ‘square’. Made from wood or metal, the frames move, expand and shrink due to changing temperatures and structural movement.

That’s why finding off-the-shelf secondary glazing that actually fits without gaps or fillers, and doesn’t stand out like a sore thumb, is pretty impossible.

Storm’s bespoke systems and handcrafted units, expertly measured down to the millimetre, ensure the best results for you and your property.

Capturing each measurement down to the millimetre (or less), at Storm, every unit is handcrafted in our own workshop to ensure a perfect fit and optimum performance. No shape or size of window is off-limits.
Outside, the building retains its original character with no signs of modernisation to the existing windows. Inside, the choice is yours. Blend seamlessly with existing decor, or create a standout feature.
Purposefully designed to be fully reversible, our installations won’t interfere with or impact your primary windows in any way. And, complying with conservation guidelines, our products are the slimmest secondary glazing systems on the market.
Our skilled in-house manufacturing team, expert surveyors, and knowledgeable, approachable office staff are all on hand to ensure your order runs smoothly from start to finish. Work with us to experience true attention to detail, with no third-party complications.
