Bonded Windows

Bonded windows are a modern, sleek option to transform the appearance of your narrowboat. These  windows are manufactured with aluminium frames and toughened safety glass.

This style of aluminium framed window has been designed with privacy in mind. The dark grey privacy glass supplied allows more comfortable living conditions on board your narrowboat.

There are numerous options to consider when looking at bonded windows including frame finish, glass tint, opening style and shape. The advantages of this style of window is the opportunity to create a truly personalised, bespoke design. If you have any custom ideas or requirements, get in touch with our technical team today to discuss!

Our Bonded Windows are available in –

• Single Glazed
• Double Glazed with Thermal Break
• Flush Double Glazed with Thermal Break. 

Enhancing your windows with double glazing will help to keep your boat warm and comfortable as well as helping with noise reduction. The thermal barrier within the outer frame will work to reduce the condensation on your aluminium window frames.

Our latest, innovative design is the flush double glazed with thermal break bonded windows. These create a truly streamlined and seamless look as they have been created so that the inner glass pane closes flush to the outer glass.

If you’re curious about which style is best suited to you, don’t hesitate to get in touch with Caldwells today. We can offer the latest advise to ensure that you choose the perfect style of window to suit your needs.

Clip – In Narrowboat Windows

Clip – In windows are an industry leading design which are installed from the inside of the boat. They have no fixing holes and are attached with metal clips that screw against the body of the boat from the inside. These clips and screws are supplied with your windows. If you don’t have access to the inside of your boat, these can be bonded on from the outside or pre-drilled if required. These windows are manufactured with UK supplied aluminium frames and toughened safety glass.

This style is available in Single Glazed, Double Glazed or Double Glazed with Thermal Break. 

Enhancing your aluminium framed windows with double glazing will help to keep your boat warm and comfortable as well as helping with noise reduction. Upgrading to the thermal break style will work to reduce condensation on your window frames.

All double glazed Clip – In style windows are manufactured as full hoppers. This means the glass unit can drop back for ventilation or be fully removed with ease to enjoy truly effective ventilation throughout your boat or as a means of escape in an emergency. In the event of a broken or smashed glass, we can supply a new replacement inner pane which can be simply swapped out without the need to remove the entire window from your boat.

These windows offer the same design options as the concealed windows. Whatever style you’re looking for, contact us today to discuss your options!
