1 WGL 800 Series Windows

2 CASEMENT SPECIFICATION 1.Scope This specification defines the basic design concept, construction, materials, fittings and performance of WGL 800 series thermally broken Casement windows 2.Design Concept The profiles and components in this range have been specially designed to provide a thermally broken window that is glazed externally or internally. Compatible with WGL 500 series curtain wall and WGL 200 series entrance screen system. In addition to use as a Casement window, the system can be used as ground floor screen work up to a height of 3.6m by using coupling mullion reinforced with steel. 3.Materials Aluminium alloy 6063 TE & TF, stainless steel and appropriate high quality seals used throughout. 4.Finishes The construction allows for fabrication of all exposed members from prefinished lengths of aluminium extrusion. These exposed profiles will be available in a range of finishes: a) Anodised to BS 3987, Grade AA25. Etched and anodised natural selfcolour, black, bronze and standard colour range. b) Synthapulvin paint standard colour range. c) Nonstandard colours are available upon request. d) Synthapulvin paint finish to a marine / swimming pool environment finish. 5.Construction Perimeter members are cut at a 45o mitre. The corners being reinforced and joined using extruded aluminium corner cleats and ties then sealed with a corner jointing adhesive. Intermediate mullions and transom bars are square cut, machined and fixed to outer frame using selftapping screws and stainless steel pins. 6.Hardware Side and top hung projecting vents are fitted as standard with friction hinges and either cockspur handles or espagnolette bar and handle. 7.Glazing/Infill The range has been designed for a basic 28mm glass or panel thickness but can be increased to 36mm or 48mm using a different bead option. is set against rubber retaining gasket set into a groove in the bead/frame, with internal locking wedge gasket completing the glazing. Glazing gaskets are manufactured from BS7412 trade standard TPE material with a water based lubricant. TPE material can be used with selfcleaning glass, such as Pilkington Active. The glass is then held in place with either WGL835, 836 or WGL837 clipin spring bead depending on glass thickness.

10 Our Facility The Window Company is based in a 55,000 SqFt factory located in Bristol. At any one time we have over 50 team members, the majority of whom have been with the company for the majority of their working lives. Being a family owned and managed company is very important to us, as is the level of retained experience and knowhow amongst the workforce, demonstrated by our unusually high staff retention figures. Unlike many of our perceived competitors everything we supply is designed, manufactured and installed by us, giving the company a unique level of control over our products and the complete cycle from architect s concept through to detail design, manufacture and eventual installation. The benefits our clients enjoy because of this are many, not the least being our ability to cope with and overcome any peculiarities or problems that may occur during the contract process. Controlling our own complete production process also allows us to be extremely flexible, capable of taking on projects of any and all sizes, our investment in the most state of the industry CNC machinery presently giving us a capacity of circa 750k per month. Window 11 Emery Road Brislington Bristol BS4 5PF enquiries@windowglass.co.uk CE Marked Products: Window products conform to the appropriate harmonised Euro Norms (hens) or European Technical Assessments (ETAs) and all products are delivered to site and installed complete with the CE mark, demonstrating that our products comply with the essential requirements contained in the standard.
