R9, R7, R2 - A TRADITIONAL LOOK
Period homeowners and leading architects are choosing Residence UPVC window frames to achieve the appearance of hand-crafted timber framed windows. The quality and design is so good that these windows look like traditional timber windows, even up close, with mitred corners and a wood effect finish that perfectly mimics the real thing – come and see at our showrooms!
Residence R9 Collection
A flush timber style that is an excellent replacement window choice for a cottage or country house, to replace old timber framed windows. The wood effect colours are incredibly realistic, and there are 9 chambers (insulating air pockets) within the 100mm deep frames. For a 19th Century carpenter made look, the frames are flush inside and out, emulating a traditional 4” timber framed window. Available in 23 colours.
Residence R7 Collection
Replicates the look of a 19th Century flush sash timber window with 7 chambers set inside a 75mm deep frame. Frames are flush inside and out and sit very handsomely in a modern or a traditional home. The R7 frames can be ordered in a choice of three different corner joints – a mitre weld, graff weld or mechanical weld, so even up close you can achieve that external timber mitre joint look. There are 5 different glazing bead choices and 20 colours in the R7 collection.
Residence R2 Collection
Has square edged frames that are 100mm deep, with an internal 9 chamber system for superb insulating and noise reducing properties. A modern, clean style, frames are flush inside and out. An excellent choice when replacing old metal framed windows, or indeed a superb alternative to aluminium frames.
For comparison, a standard UPVC window frame has between 3-5 chambers inside it.

Our Glass is futuristic!
We use coated glass, which has a clever film on the inner pane of all our energy-efficient insulating glass units. The coating reflects heat back into the room. It has a high solar heat gain, so it will retain your heating warmth by allowing high levels of solar energy to flood in, for warmer and brighter interiors, and reduced your heating and lighting costs. You can choose double or triple glazed units in your new Residence windows, or textured privacy glass – a 5 Star Designer will explain all your options (and we do not charge for Designer appointments).
Why the Residence Collection
Residence windows boast superior design detailing and screw retention reinforcements, locks and hinges are secured firmly into position. Residence is also specifically designed to accommodate the additional weight of triple glazed units, allowing heavy duty hinges to fit and operate perfectly, and are engineered to meet current and anticipated future standards. Other window frames typically offer 3 or 5 chambers and are usually 70mm wide, Residence windows have 7 or 9 chambers and are wider and stronger, resulting in superior thermal, acoustic, strength and security performances. Residence can accommodate superior glazing – R7 and R9 have Double and Triple Glazed Options in 28mm and 44mm.
