I have been looking at glazing and went to look at Internorm windows, the salesman seemed a little arrogant and said they only sell windows to passive house standards, I showed him what I wanted and explained the house would be timber/sips and he said they only install into steel or concrete and windows do not hold the roof up, I told him I know that but house manufacturer have structural engineers to design the front of house so it can support windows, he then said you’ll need this style of window/sliding doors and it would cost 30k, he showed me electric doors that open with fingerprint and he could not get it to work, I am trying to get U-Values to a sensible level but 0.6 is not what I am looking for, does anyone have any experience with installing a similar type of window in Northern Ireland and who did you use, the overall width shall be about 6mtrs and height of about 5.5mtrs, has anyone used Fenbro windows from Poland as they have a distributor in the South of Ireland?

 

Kind regards,

That salesperson was a dick.

 

Others from the land of the hot-press will be along to comment, just sit and wait for the magic to happen ;).

 

You'd be best off sticking to UK based suppliers so you can get robust after-sales service, but there is some lovely stuff coming from abroad, and iirc Velfac and Rational manufacture in Europe, so this is not uncommon.

Thank you Nick, just looking for a simple solution with reasonable U-valued about 1.2,and only the middle two sections with one sliding door for pedestrian access!
