Crittall Steel Windows

Are Crittall windows a sustainable choice? The answer might surprise you.

Steel is one of the most recyclable materials on earth - repurposed repeatedly without losing strength or quality. Combined with a product lifespan that can exceed 60 years, Crittall windows are designed to last, not to be replaced.

Modern thermally enhanced systems reduce heat loss, support stable indoor temperatures, and can contribute to lower energy bills across the life of the home.

Beautiful windows. Built to last. Better for the planet.

What happens when an old office space becomes someone's first home?

This remarkable renovation - featured on George Clarke's Remarkable Renovations on Channel 4 - is exactly that kind of project. A space never intended for domestic life, transformed through careful thought, bold design choices, and the kind of detailing that makes a house feel truly personal from the moment you walk in.

Crittall windows and doors were central to the vision: bringing light, structure and a timeless character to every room.

This is what renovation looks like when it is done with conviction.

How to divide and conquer your home floor plan.

Crittall steel pocket doors bring the perfect balance of flexibility and strength to your home. In this South-West London townhouse renovation, Crittall pocket doors were introduced by ade architecture and , in collaboration with Bespoke Glazing Design.

When closed, they create clear architectural boundaries between rooms. When opened, they slide seamlessly into the wall, giving homeowners the freedom to open up the space for gatherings while maintaining the strength and character of steel-framed design.

Russell Ager, Managing Director of Crittall Windows, shares:
“Pocket doors give homeowners flexibility without losing the strength and character of steel-framed design.”

We loved reading this Essex Live feature on the visionary village built for factory workers in Essex by the industrialist behind it all - Francis Henry Crittall.

It’s a powerful reminder that Crittall Windows’ history isn’t just about crafting iconic steel windows; it’s about community, innovation and design.

From humble beginnings in an ironmongery in Braintree in 1849, Crittall went on to pioneer steel-framed windows that helped shape 20th-century architecture - from modern homes to landmark buildings across the world.

Our founder’s vision even extended to building Silver End, a model village in the 1920s designed with housing, amenities and a real sense of community for workers and their families.

It’s local history we’re proud of - and a legacy that continues to inspire how we think about quality, craftsmanship and people today.
