Foxhill House, Chester
2nd April 2019

SPECTUS white vertical sliding windows with through-horn detailing, including 14 arched vertical sliders, were used in the refurbishment of the 19th Century Foxhill House, Chester, now used as a Diocesan retreat.

The new vertical sliders, chosen to replace ageing timber single glaze sliding sash windows, were manufactured in white with run-through horns by specialist Mercury Glazing of Gloucester and installed by Droylsden Glass.

Kevin Thackeray, director at Droylsden Glass said: “The Spectus Vertical Slider is a designclassic which sympathetically captures many, if not all, of the key features of traditional design combined with all the benefits that a modern replacement window should offer.”

Installation of the 54 vertical sliders including 14 arches took three weeks, with works planned to minimise disruption to the day-to-day activities of the centre.
