It’s all in the details
Colours, finishes and hardware choices all contribute to the final appearance of a fixed window, each playing a part in how it sits within your property’s overall design.
Multiple shades and woodgrain finishes
UPVC shaped windows can be given very different personalities through the choice of finish and the finishing options will almost seem endless. Elect to have a restrained neutral, bold contemporary shade or woodgrain effect that people will assume to be authentic timber.
Sleek finishes for modern homes
Eclipse aluminium frames can be finished in a selection of powder-coated colours that require an intense 11-stage colour application process. Rosewood, Oak and Walnut sublimation finishes are also available if you want aluminium frames to mimic wooden openings.
Finishing touches that matter
Handles and other hardware aren’t just integral to functionality and an opening window, but also to the overall appearance of a design. Choose a style and finish that works naturally with the frame and wider design.
Customise your shaped windows
Decorative glass, privacy options and traditional detailing can all be incorporated to elevate the already eye-catching character of shaped windows.

Common questions about shaped windows
Any questions that you may have about shaped windows might be answered below. These are the questions that ProGlaze customers tend to ask about them. If any information you need is missing, you can always contact us to find out more.
1. What are shaped windows?
Shaped windows are made for openings that feature unusual proportions or geometry. They can be produced in forms such as arches, triangles, circles and gable-end configurations.
2. Where are shaped windows usually installed?
They’re often used in gable ends, beneath pitched roofs, stairwells, extensions and other areas with angled or elevated architecture. They’re also a useful option when a standard rectangular window would leave part of an opening unused.
3. Do shaped windows offer good energy efficiency?
Yes. Their performance depends on the frame and glazing specification selected, just as it does with conventional windows. Modern insulated frames and energy-efficient glazing can help reduce heat transfer and maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.
4. Is it possible to tailor shaped windows?
Yes. Because they’re produced for individual openings, there’s considerable flexibility over dimensions, shape, frame material, colours, glazing and decorative details. This makes it possible to create anything from a subtle architectural match to a prominent feature window.
5. Will shaped windows be secure enough?
They can provide a high level of security when specified with suitable frames, glazing and hardware. Where the design includes opening sections, these can incorporate appropriate locking systems; fixed sections have no opening mechanism to operate.
6. Do shaped windows need much maintenance?
UPVC and aluminium shaped windows are designed to keep maintenance requirements manageable. Routine cleaning is generally all that’s needed to keep the frames and glass looking their best, with opening hardware requiring the usual care applicable to any operable window.
7. What colour options are there for shaped windows?
There’s plenty of scope to coordinate the frame with your property. Options include traditional whites, contemporary greys and darker shades, alongside woodgrain finishes for a more natural appearance. Aluminium also offers a wide range of powder-coated finishes.
8. Are shaped windows suitable for modern and traditional homes?
Yes. The shape itself can be selected around the architecture, while the material, colour and glazing determine much of the finished character. A flush UPVC design can work well with a period-inspired property, while slim aluminium framing can create a cutting-edge contemporary effect.
