The Project
“We’ve got beautiful views here and we wanted to maximise the views out of the windows. Our house isn’t your usual house. It’s got quite a lot of bespoke windows. We’ve got a swimming pool, we’ve got French windows. There are archways, there are apexes and Panoramic were able to facilitate and design and implement those windows. A lot of other companies wouldn’t do that.”
– Amie McCarthy
The McCarthy family got in touch with us because their existing windows were showing their age. They had several old uPVC windows that were no longer performing at their best and didn’t really match the decor, so were hoping for some replacements.
Notably, we weren’t the first company they’d contacted but several of our competitors turned the job down because of the shapes involved. The McCarthy house had numerous shaped windows, with curves and arches outside the standard shape and this presented a unique challenge. At Panoramic, we’re used to dealing with unusual designs so were happy to help out.
The Project
New customer Mr Howard contacted Panoramic originally to look at internal metal screens for the basement area of his house in Bradford on Avon. He wanted to provide room dividers between a utility area, a gym and a living space, with a modern look and utilising as much light as possible
The Project
The Awan family bought their period home always knowing that an investment would be needed. There were old white aluminium windows that had long since past their best-before-date and several windows with period stained glass that needed to be restored.
The Project
19 Somerset Lane in Bath is a superbly designed new build house situated just behind Lansdown Terrace in a one acre site. The new property boasts excellent southerly views over the city.
Modern, Contemporary Terrace Featuring Aluminium Windows And Doors
The Project
Working with existing customer Annexe, Panoramic was asked to look at the requirements for doors and windows for a new project in Bath. The proposed modern take on a Bath Terrace featured four 3-storey properties with a fifth detached apartment overlooking the beautiful Lyncombe Valley towards Combe Down. The Developer wanted to utilise natural light by maximising glass area and making the most of the stunning views to the rear of the property.
The Project
Mr & Mrs Taber had old wooden double glazed windows in their 1970’s family house in North Somerset. They had been looking at replacing all the windows and doors for some time but were looking for an alternative to timber that was low maintenance but retained the character of the house. They were keen to have a flush window with the look of wood and at the same time wanted a new colour that set of the stone finish of the property.
Design, Manufacture And Installation Of Timber Bifold Doors And Windows
Scope
Our client contacted Panoramic during the early planning stages for a luxury townhouse in Georgian Bath. The project was a new build in Bath Stone and there was a considerable requirement for windows and doors. In keeping with the quality of materials used throughout the house, the client specified an engineered hardwood for all the windows and doors. Finished in Anthracite grey, the requirement included a large number of bifold doors including two 3.5m examples off the spacious kitchen/diner.
Design, Manufacture And Installation Of Crittall Homelight Windows And Slimline Aluminium Doors
The Project
The owners of this beautiful stone farmhouse in North Somerset wanted to replace their old steel Crittall windows with modern equivalents while maintaining the character and visual appeal of the property. The home is a listed building in a conservation area and the owners contacted the local council to put apply for permission. At the same time they contacted Panoramic for advice and guidance on finding the right products for their project.
Panoramic were able to help the client with all the required technical drawings and information and worked with them and the Council’s Conservation Officer, to produce windows and doors that met both the council’s and the clients exacting requirements.
The Project
The addition of a third floor required fire-rated doors between the kitchen and the staircase. The dining room, sandwiched in the centre of the property, was without the benefit of an exterior window. Significantly, the redesign had to capture light from the front and rear of the property, to illuminate this room. The Chapman’s Architect, David Mills, recommended a fire-rated glazed partition and door to meet building regulations.
The Project
Mr & Mrs Roberts have recently moved to a modern property near Wells in Somerset. With a young family, they were looking at replacing the original wooden windows and doors in the house with something more contemporary and good looking. They also wanted efficiency and low maintenance from whatever they chose.
