We are looking to replace the rotten softwood windows & doors in our modern house and would like to stick with cream as this is the current colour of the windows and it looks nice.
We have had a few quotes and have been offered solid cream frames (Where the plastic is cream) made by Logik 70 and cream woodgrain foil (Foil layer over a white frame) made by Kommerling, which I understand to be a good manufacturer.
What worries me are knocks & bumps that show up the white frame beneith the foil, but I find the solid cream frames a little plain and less interesting, but still okay.
Because we are living close to a busy road, we are opting for 6.4mm laminated glass across the front of the house to minimise noise, but were warned by the Kommerling installer that the Logik 70 windows, might not have strong enough hinges to take the extra weight of the glass.
The quote for the Kommerling windows is much higher too!
Anyone had any experience of cream foil and cream solid windows by these two manufacturers or how well they stand up to heavier glass on the hinges. Thanks.
Chris.
