How Long Do Timber Windows and Doors Last?

How Long Do Timber Windows and Doors Last?

 

If your customer is looking for a natural feel to their home, our wooden windows and doors are a perfect accompaniment. At Dempsey Dyer, we supply modern timber windows to the trade, which are a cost effective option in comparison to uPVC windows. In this article, we will explain ways that your customer can increase the lifespan of your windows and doors.

 

The Windows and Doors are Weather Resistant

 

It is a common misconception that timber windows suffer from poor weather conditions. Our modern variation is both weather resistant and watertight, so it will withstand even the worst conditions.   

   

Our Stormproof timber windows are designed so they do not rust, warp or fade. This is a unique selling point as they give homeowners an authentic appearance that is resistant to the elements. The timber windows offer a low moisture content that stops movement. The windows include a micro porous paint that will give a high quality finish that gives the longevity of your windows.

 

When you choose a timber door, it is built with sustainability and durability in mind. Your customer will feel very confident because the door has a 7” slope that makes sure that water runs off easily. This ensures your customers’ home won’t suffer from damage.

 

Timber Has Exceptional Thermal Efficiency

Feel reassured that when your customer chooses our timber doors, they are built for external use. The sashes are 58mm thick, giving your customer incredible glazing options. With this in mind, cold air will be left outside, and their home will be warmer in the long run.

 

Our timber windows and doors trap natural heat inside your property, saving your customer money on energy bills. All our timber windows are A rated for energy efficiency, ensuring outstanding performance all year long.

 

Modern Windows and Doors Have A Long Lifespan 

 

When your customer chooses timber windows, they offer a longer lifespan than you might think. While older windows are a challenge to maintain, our modern variety cuts down this issue. It is imperative that your customer checks the glazing for thermal efficiency. The seals will need to be checked on the windows for leakage and damage.

 

There is an option to increase the lifespan even further because the windows can be repainted. To do this, repaint the windows every 5 years to ensure it looks fantastic for longer. At Dempsey Dyer, we use Accoya, which is a natural wood that gives unbeatable performance and a beautiful appearance that lasts.

 

A wooden door has an exceptionally long lifespan because it lasts between 55-65 years. Inform your customer to check their door for any wear and tear. Your customer should do this during the spring and summer to see if there is any flaking paint. Furthermore, your customer should also check the edges of the door because it is a common place for damage to occur.

 

Check the Seals of the Windows and Doors 

 

Another way your customer can increase the lifespan of your windows is to check the seals over time. It is common for rust to build on your windows and doors, especially if it comes into contact with moisture. As the rust builds over time, it is imperative that your customer catches it early because it is easier to remove.

 

Replace Broken Hardware

 

At Dempsey Dyer, we understand the hardware is crucial to the windows’ appeal. But we also know that it will deteriorate over time with regular use. A window is heavily reliant on its hardware to function properly. We offer replacement hardware, such as handles and seals, which have looked fantastic for many years. If they don’t get replaced, this can lead to further problems over time.

 

Check the Frame for Damage

 

One of the most important parts is to check the frame of your window and doors. The first thing your customer should do is wipe it with a damp cloth to get a good look. Check the frame for any warps or cracks which cause moisture damage. It is essential that they get this fixed straight away. Next, check if there are dents in the door, which can occur with repeated usage.  

 

Conclusion

 

We hope that this article has helped your customer understand how to keep their timber windows and doors in good condition. The windows and doors will last for many years. However, there are ways for them to increase this. Repainting them every few years will freshen up their look.

At Dempsey Dyer, we supply uPVC windows for the trade. We believe that uPVC windows are a robust material for your customers’ commercial and residential properties. uPVC has many benefits for your customer, and in this article, we will list some of them and how they will assist your customer.

Your customer will be impressed by the durability that uPVC windows offer. They offer your customer robust protection against the worst weather conditions.

At Dempsey Dyer, all our windows come with advanced double glazing, which lets natural light into your customers’ commercial or residential property.

At Dempsey Dyer, we offer ways for the customer to completely customise their uPVC windows. Inform them that they are able to choose a bespoke colour of their choice. For instance, a Rosewood Oak colour will give their window a natural and beautiful look to your commercial or residential property. Alternatively, we also offer a White colour which brings in a touch of brightness to your customers’ commercial or residential properties. If your customer is feeling adventurous, they could opt for either Chartwell Green or Rosewood because both are colours that stand out to potential visitors and anyone who sees them.

We offer a dual colour option, where your customer can blend the outside with the inside. This will give them a greater level of personalisation because one colour will be on the outside, while the other will be in the interior.

Our uPVC windows will last for decades because they provide outstanding performance.

If your customer is worried about security, then the uPVC windows that we provide are perfect for their needs. The tough and robust double glazing will help reduce their impact against intruders, ensuring that they will be safe should anyone try to break in. This will be suitable against tough conditions because you can inform your customer that the airtight and watertight seal helps prevent cold air from coming into their property. Let them know that this helps them save money on repairs.

Our selection of windows gives your customer outstanding heat retention because the strong double glazing stops heat from escaping and leaves cold air outside. This is a fantastic selling point as your customer will be able to save lots of money on heating bills that will impact them in winter. Further to this point, the windows offer incredible sound insulation. If your customer is based in a busy area by a roadside or near an airport where the noise could be disruptive, the double or triple glazing will help reduce the sounds substantially. Inform your customer that they will benefit from a quieter space. What’s more, the energy efficient patterns we offer are low emission and come in a wide selection, including floral or ripple patterns. Whatever your customers’ specification is, we have something that is right for them. If your customer desires, then astragal or Georgian bars can be incorporated into their windows to add to their personality options. We offer these styles for both modern and period properties, so there is something suitable for everyone.

Let your customers know that we offer high quality hardware options for the windows, including handles. We work with Deceuninck, who are a leading market installer, to supply a range of colourful handles. Your customer can choose from colours such as Antique Black, Gold, Chrome, or Bronze.
