Autumn is fast approaching the leaves are falling off the trees, the air is getting cooler and the days are getting shorter. Before long it will be winter and it is important that we are all fully prepared. For many older people particularly the winter can be a scary time with the long dark nights and it is important that we all feel safe in our home. By checking the security of our homes now we can ensure that we have a safe and happy winter.

Your windows should let in fresh air, sunlight and not much else. Old fashioned timber framed windows often have flimsy locks. Ideally you should fit uPVC replacement windows with multipoint mortice locks. But if your budget will not run to this then you should at least fit key operated locks to your existing windows. Again if the budget will allow fit double glazing replacement windows rather than single glazing as it is much tougher and harder to break than single glazing.

Double glazing will also help to lower you gas and electricity bills as it is far more energy efficient. uPVC replacement windows are generally seen as the most secure windows available on the market, but they do actually vary in quality. Look out for uPVC replacement windows that have multipoint locking systems and an internal beading system so the glass cannot be removed from the outside and ask about the energy ratings for the window – the best rating being ‘A’ rated – which is supplied to all uPVC Replacement Windows from Greenway, in South Wales.

Your front doors, back doors, french doors and also patio doors are the other major weak spot in your home. Ideally your front door should have a high security deadlock. Also any glazing within the doors should be double glazed, both these features come as standard on most good quality uPVC doors. Consider installing a spy hole and a security chain so you are able to see who is outside your home before you let them in. Letter boxes should be no closer to the lock than 400mm and an internal cover plate is also a good idea. It is easy to only focus on the front and back doors but you also need to think about patio doors and French doors too.

Research shows that patio doors are actually one of the favourite methods for many burglars entering your home. Anti lift devices and extra locks are available for patio doors which can help to make them more secure. Ask your local Greenway representative for details of doors specifications and security features.

There is nothing worse than not feeling safe in our own homes and by taking some precautions now you can be safe in the knowledge that you have taken precautions to improve the security of your home.

These are commonly sought in uPVC, which are growing in popularity due to their durability, safety features and a low cost.

Why choose Patio doors?
Patio Doors are very popular due to their cost, aesthetics and efficiency. They are available in a variety of different sizes, finished and colours, provide added security and are extremely durable.

As you know, I recently had all the windows and doors in my house replaced by your company. To say that I am delighted would be an understatement!

In this day and age it is all too common to suffer shoddy workmanship, faulty goods and poor service all of which I am quick enough to complain of.

It is a real pleasure to be able to write and thank you and your colleagues for the the way in which the job was handled. From the initial contact, through to the installation process and my contact with your office, I have alwasy been treated in a corteous and friendly way and made to feel (as all customers should) – important!

The difference the new windows and doors have made is quite dramatic. It has made several rooms, and the hall, look a good bit larger.

Once again, thank you. You can rest assured that if any one of the many admirers of the windows wants to know who did the work, I shall have no hesitation in recommending your company and giving them your telephone number. Please feel free, at any time, to use my name as a reference site – if you so wish.

Just a note to say how please wwe are with our new energy rated windows your company has installed in our home.

The difference to the outside of the house is wonderful, whilst the inside of the house is now draught free and much much warmer than before, we don’t need to turn the heating up anymore!!

We would also like to thank your installers John and Steve. They were excellent and installed the windows with the utmost care.

I would readily recommend your company to anybody considering replacement windows.

Last Friday your two fitters Andy and Nathan completed the installation of a pair of PVCu patio doors and a conservatory front and roof.

I would like to tell you that I was very impressed with the efficient way in which they carried out the installation. They worked superbly as a team.

From the moment that Alex called to the moment Andy and Nathan left everything spoke of a quality product and I am delighted with the result. I enclosed two envelopes that I would like you to pass on to Andy and Nathan with my thanks.

Yours Faithfully,

Mr. J Fisher

Dear Mr Green,

As you are in no doubt aware, your company has just fitted uPVC double glazing to the above mentioned property and we would like to tell you how pleased we are with the finished product.

You are to be congratulated on your choice of staff, from your salesman Mr S. Tucker, your office staff, to the two fitters John and Steve. Both these lads are a credit to your company, nothing was too much trouble for them and even when through no fault of your own, it was necessary for them to work late on two evenings to complete the job on time.

However our invoice for tea bags and chocolate biscuits will follow.

Yours Faithfully,

D Lawrence,

Stoke Gifford, Bristol
