Windows

As the largest window suppliers in Northern Ireland, we use the best windows in the current market, that is, Deceuninck Window systems. We have used other brands over the years likes Rehau, Veka, Kommerling and Spectus.

However, after attending one of Europe’s biggest exhibitions, we were blown away by the supreme quality of Deceunick. Thereafter, we made the switch to this brand and there was no looking back.

New windows in Northern Ireland are increasingly being made of aluminium due to the following benefits offere:

• Aluminium, being a low density metal, is used to create slim lined window frames that are usually high in strength. They can withstand extreme weather conditions like frost and bright sunlight, without contraction and expansion, allowing the window frame to remain unhinged.
• Through minimal maintenance, these windows ca last a lifetime.
• They are available in a variety of colours from the full RAL range.

While choosing new windows for your home, you can refer to the following styles.

• Casement- This is the most widely used window style in the UK. The most notable feature of these windows is that they open outwards. This type is highly versatile and can be even hung from different directions- top, bottom or side.
• Sliding sash- Although these windows replicate the 17th century aesthetically, they can make a great fit in recent times. They typically slide vertically using an adept sliding mechanism
• Faux/mock sash- This unique type of windows, typically follow the casement window mechanism, however, their outward appearance is similar to that of sliding sash window
• Tilt and turn- This kind offers two-in-one hinging mechanisms, By tilting the window slightly on the inwards, allows for great ventilation without needing to fully open. Or turn the handle entirely for a full 90 degree opener.

We offer two kinds of glazing for windows in Belfast and throughout NI – double and triple glazing.

1. Double glazing- This is the most popular glazing type in the UK, making up to 80%. They feature two panes of glass, separated by cavity. This gap or cavity is filled with an efficient inert gas like krypton or argon. As a result, you get incredible thermal efficacy by limiting the amount of heat which escapes through the window. This kind of glazing offers excellent noise resistance.
2. Triple glazing – This type of glazing uses three glass panes instead of two. It has two cavities, filled with an inert gas, similar to that of double glazing. Thus, this type has advanced thermal efficiency and noise reduction capabilities.

Nowadays, most windows in NI use different glass and designs suitable for your taste and preferences. Smart Homes NI offers you different glass types, e.g. decorative glass, obscure glass, low e-glass and toughened glass.

Decorative glass includes glass with different aesthetics and designs, like Georgian glass, while obscure glass includes frosted or satin patterns, making it ideal for privacy. Low e-glass offers great thermal efficiency and toughened glass offers great strength.

Our windows cater to the PAS24:2021 certification, which meets the required security standards of all residential properties in the UK. Regardless of this, we even offer additional measures to advance your windows security:

• Multi-point locking mechanism – Offering multiple locking points around the frames, preventing force entry to a great extent.
• Internal beading – To insert the glass on the inside of the window frame. Older frames are the opposite, meaning the glass can easily be popped out from outside your house, easy access for intruders.  Always insure your windows are internally beaded.
• Key-operated handles – This feature allows you to lock your windows from the interior, reducing the risks of forced entry.
• ‘Secured By Design’ – This official UK police certification and scheme recognizes your windows as a home-improvement product for high-levels of security

All our windows are designed bespoke to a homeowners measurements and specific requirements, hence they are manufacture from scratch. Our standard lead time is usually around 6-8 weeks from survey to fitting.
