Steel Look Windows in Yorkshire – Harrogate Case Study
A striking installation of steel look windows in Yorkshire, with matching bifold and patio doors. Combining traditional Yorkshire architecture with modern glazing, this project demonstrates how Alitherm Heritage systems are the UK’s best selling brand of steel-inspired, Art-Deco and industrial style glazing. A timeless look to an elegant Harrogate home.
Alitherm Heritage Windows and Doors
These distinctive and striking steel look windows in Yorkshire use the tried and tested Alitherm Heritage System. Premium-grade aluminium with professionally applied powder coated finish, sophisticated thermal breaks, high-specification safety glass and premium hardware and components all come as standard. Above all, these windows provide as close as is possible aluminium window that looks like steel.
Alitherm Heritage windows and doors are the UK’s best-selling brand successfully replacing old steel windows and providing the iconic industrial and metal inspired style for nearly twenty years.
Black steel look windows for a Harrogate Home
The property features 29 side-hung casement windows, each divided by ultra-slim 25mm glazing bars into a balanced grid of eight panes. Powder coated in the popular RAL 9005 matt black finish, these steel look windows in Yorkshire symmetry and architectural character, while offering the best in modern aluminium window quality, performance, security and lifespan.
To complement the casement design, we also installed floor-to-ceiling fixed picture windows with horizontal glazing bars, as well as a bespoke triangular steel look window in the roof space. Together, these bring more natural light into the home while keeping the exterior consistent with the original stone construction.
Every window is fitted with 28mm insulated glass units, incorporating a soft-coat low-emissivity coating, warm edge spacers and argon gas fill. Trickle vents have been seamlessly integrated into slimline head extensions, ensuring Building Regulations compliance without compromising aesthetics.
Slimline heritage bifold doors
Two 5m wide, five-panel bifold doors were installed at the rear of the property, opening the living space to the gardens. Manufactured from the Visofold heritage-inspired system, these bifolds achieve one of the slimmest sightlines on the market at just 94mm.
Unlike other products that simply apply bars to the glass, the Visofold system replicates the authentic stepped detail of traditional steel doors. The result is a bifold door that feels true to the heritage style while delivering modern performance, security, and effortless operation.
These premium bifold doors complement the window perfectly and come with a convenient traffic door, enabling easy entry and exit without having to fold all the panels back.
Heritage style aluminium doors
At the side and rear, two Alitherm Heritage aluminium doors provide secure and elegant access points. Slimline glazing bars, period lock bodies, low thresholds and trickle vents all contribute to a door that is both faithful to the steel-inspired look and designed to last.
As with the windows and bifolds, all glass units are toughened for safety and high security multipoint locks with key cylinders come as standard.
