Most small conservatories or orangeries do not require planning permission and those that fall within the regulations rarely cause problems for the planners. Oakminster's in-house planning team will be pleased to assist with this process and most applications are successful.

We have always provided Sliding Sash windows as an option in conservatories and orangeries but we are now offering these as a stand alone product for replacement or new work.

These can be the traditional weighted variety or the slim-line version using spring balances. In response to a clear and increasing demand, we have recently started selling sash windows directly for new developments and replacements into existing buildings.

Together with our range of casement windows and sliding folding doors, we can provide a complete integrated solution for all external joinery requirements. If you already have one of our conservatories or orangeries we can provide your replacement windows and doors to the same high quality you received before.

The increased use of glass in architecture today makes it imperative to consider the comfort of a building's occupants. Solar control glass can be an attractive feature of a building whilst at the same time minimising, or even eliminating the need for an air conditioning system, reducing running costs of the building and saving energy.

In hot locations, solar control glass can be used to minimise solar heat gain and help control glare. In temperate locations, it can be used to balance solar control with high levels of natural light. Solar control glass can be specified for any situation where excessive solar heat gain is likely to be an issue, eg. large façades, glass walkways and conservatories.

The Pilkington range of Solar Control glass offers a range of performance options to suit most building applications. All products are available in toughened or laminated form for safety and security requirements and can be combined with other benefits such as noise control and self cleaning finish.

Folding sliding doors (or bi-fold doors) are becoming increasingly popular as they can open far wider than conventional French doors and provide that all important uninterrupted sight line into the garden.

They are available in 9 flexible outward opening stacking configurations using up to 7 equal door panel widths with a recommended maximum overall system width of 5m
