Steel Window Fittings’ duplex system was selected to stay
true to the building’s heritage appearance whilst providing
functionality to the large, multilight windows. Adding a
duplex system produces a tight seal between the frame
and sash, reducing weathering and promoting longevity.
Along with the handle fittings, the B59KN OG - a classic
slide stay with a fitted round knob - was also installed onto
the bottom section of the window to allow for fixing of
the window position for safety within the building.
All hardware was supplied in a matching oil rubbed
bronze finish to blend with the traditional window frames
throughout level 5 in County Hall.
The SWA offers UK wide coverage with member
companies able to carry out the full range of contracts
from the repair and restoration of heritage windows
through to the installation of major fenestration packages
in contemporary commercial, residential and other types
of developments.
