The Case for Better Glazing in Ribchester
Old Cockspur Handles?
Cockspur handles offer minimal security. Upgrading to espagnolette systems with shootbolt locking dramatically improves your window security.
Insurance Requires Locking Windows?
Most home insurance policies require ground-floor windows to have key-operated locks. We upgrade non-compliant windows to meet requirements.
Windows Won't Lock?
Windows that don't lock properly are a security risk and an insurance liability. We replace faulty mechanisms quickly and affordably.
