Premium window and door designer The Residence Collection offers a quality product made in the UK, with a network of dedicated fabricators and installers nationwide.
The Residence Collection launched the original PVC-U flush sash, Residence 9, back in 2011 — designed to authentically replicate 19th Century timber designs. The Residence 7 and Residence2 collections completed the full suite offering.
Not only do Residence Collection windows deliver on style, but they also meet current building regulations and are a smart choice for British installers. The Residence Collection easily achieves the Document L regulation that came into effect last year, with all systems achieving 1.2W/m²K as standard with double glazing.
Since June 2022, building regulation Part F relates to new requirements for trickle vents on new and replacement windows. These regulations may differ for historic and traditional buildings, such as listed buildings or those in conservation areas however, The Residence Collection window systems can be fabricated with trickle vents, and also offer trickle vent covers, giving peace of mind for installers and homeowners.
All three systems can be manufactured with a number of jointing methods such as mechanically jointed, mitre welded, Timberweld® or graf weld, giving your customers more choice to create the perfect look for their home.
Residence 9
The original timber alternative window, there’s a reason why R9 is so popular with fabricators, installers, and homeowners alike. The R9 collection embraces modern manufacturing and celebrates the techniques of traditional British craftsmanship for a classic aesthetic. The system outperforms its competitors with a sophisticated design, a maintenance-free finish, and technological innovation.
The range is designed to perfectly replicate the flush timber window designs found in period homes, listed, or conservation area properties, so the aesthetics and characteristics of the property remain unchanged. Because of this, the R9 collection has been approved for use in many conservation areas and listed buildings across the UK.
The collection is available in 21 colourways, and is made bespoke to adapt to different property needs.
The R9’s incredible energy rating of A++, options of double or triple glazing, helps to create highly efficient glazed units that offer outstanding thermal and acoustic performance. The system offers u-values as low as 0.74 W/m²K with triple glazing and 1.2 W/m²K for double glazing.
Residence 7
The R7 collection is designed with modern living in mind and embraces an array of manufacturing techniques with a sophisticated seven-chamber design that boasts a beautifully flush, maintenance-free finish inside and out.
The R7 system is an ideal choice for contemporary homes due to its flush internal and external aesthetic, creating a modern and versatile finish with clean, elegant lines.
The collection is available in 24 colourways, with A++ energy ratings, double or triple glazing as options, and u-values as low as 0.79 w/m²K with triple glazing, delivering on both style and performance.
Residence²
The final system that completes The Residence Collection window collection, R²,is bold and contemporary, with clean lines, superb performance, and a deep square edge internally. A true alternative to aluminium, R² is the architectural highlight of the collection.
An elegantly flush sash exterior and a unique square interior give R² its bold and modern appearance. All glass sightlines are perfectly equal, providing symmetry and complementing the internal stylish square detail.
And like with all Residence window systems, the performance isn’t impacted, with superb thermal and acoustic properties, a maintenance-free finish, and an impressive nine-chamber design.
