Services
Double Glazed Windows
Our double-glazed units feature two 4mm toughened glass panes with Super Spacer seals. Ideal for narrowboats and Dutch barges, they reduce heat loss and noise while maintaining structural integrity. Available in clamp-in or screw-fix options for easy installation.
Thermal Break Technology
Thermal break frames prevent cold transfer through aluminium profiles. This innovation eliminates condensation issues in marine environments while maintaining the strength of traditional aluminium windows. Custom powder-coated finishes available.
Narrowboat Windows
Specialist range including hopper, slider and fully opening styles. Compliant with RCD Category D standards, these windows feature radius or mitred corners. Available in single or double-glazed configurations with hidden fixings.
Shower Doors
Space-saving solutions for marine and loft conversions. Our 1600-1800mm pivot and bi-fold doors include quadrant and side-hinged options. Manufactured to order with anodised or powder-coated finishes for corrosion resistance.
Portholes
Aluminium portholes with hidden fixings for seamless installation. Available with synthetic wood liners or polished brass finishes. Designed to match our window profiles for cohesive boat exteriors and interiors.

Questions
What types of windows do you manufacture?
We specialise in narrowboat and Dutch barge windows including hopper, slider, fully opening, and arched styles. All available in single or double-glazed configurations with thermal break options.
Do you supply windows for residential projects?
Yes, our marine-grade windows are also suitable for loft conversions and low-height bathroom installations. We offer bespoke shower doors and quadrant units for residential applications.
What finishes are available?
Choose from bright/satin anodised aluminium or any RAL powder-coated colour. Thermal break windows are available in bright silver anodised or custom powder-coated finishes.
How do I measure for replacement windows?
Provide aperture dimensions including corner radii. Check spigot depth for double-glazed units and ensure existing lining accommodates deeper profiles compared to single-glazed frames.
What fixing options do you offer?
Select hidden screw fixings with coloured inserts or clamp-in systems with no external fixings. Both methods ensure watertight seals when installed with recommended Arboseal mastic.
Do you supply nationwide?
We deliver across the UK and supply through chandlers nationwide. Stockists include Millar Marine Chandlery, Wharf House Narrowboats, and Boroughbridge Marina.
