Homes in Portadown can have triple glazed fixed and picture windows supplied and fitted, with surveys arranged across County Armagh including BT62.
Large fixed panes in triple glazing, with the lift planned. A fixed or picture window does not open; it is one large pane in a slim frame, used to frame a view or bring in light.
Winter light and glass choice in Portadown

Rules for fixed and picture windows in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, replacement windows must meet 1.6 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band C or better. Replacing windows or external doors does not need full plans or a building notice, but the work must still comply; enlarging an opening or other structural change needs building control approval.
Planning: Check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows or doors, and always for listed buildings, conservation areas and flats.
How it works
You will know exactly what you are buying: the quote states the unit build-up, frame, finish, fitting work and how Building Regulations compliance is handled. On fitting day each opening is replaced and closed up before the team moves on.
- Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
- Glass build-up and whole-window U-value on every quote
- Written handover pack at the end of the job
- Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
Questions from Portadown
How heavy is a large triple glazed pane?
Roughly 30 kg per square metre with 4 mm glass, more with thicker or laminated panes. A 3 m by 2 m unit can weigh around 180 kg.
Do fixed windows need trickle vents?
The room still needs ventilation. If the fixed window replaces one with vents, ventilation must be provided another way, for example a vented frame or an adjacent opener.
How long does it take to get triple glazed fixed and picture windows fitted in Portadown?
After the survey, typical manufacture time is 4 to 8 weeks, and most homes are fitted in 1 to 4 days.
Do I need permission for triple glazed fixed and picture windows in Portadown?
In Northern Ireland, check with your council planning office before changing the style, material or size of windows, and always for listed buildings and flats. Check whether your street is in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction before changing the style.
