Queensland Windows solid joinery has a traditional wedged mortise and
tennon joint, which is a tried and proven method over decades withstanding
the test of time. Timber wedging of joints means the strength of the
product is not reliant on glue alone.
By selecting 50mm rough sawn timber, this ensures we can dress and
straighten this natural product to an exact size required for our 35mm
thick, or the stronger 40mm thick joinery range.
Craftspeople in our fully equipped workshop grind profile cutters to
produce many types of mouldings. If we do not have a profile to meet
your requirements we can produce one.
Queensland Windows uses profile beading to match the reverse side of
the window or door when installing glass to alleviate the ongoing problems
associated with face putty.
Glass
To add that touch of class to your investment you need to consider
the type of glass you wish to use. For example; safety-glass, plain,
traditional, obscure, sound reduction, heat control or leadlite, to
name just a few.
Queensland Windows can assist you in making the right choice of glass
to match your needs.
