A long time away.

It's been a long time since I updated this blog but now I am
back up to speed.

Here are a few more images to get the ball rolling.

I will put more items up over the next week or two.

Another year!

Hi!

Been a while since I was here - lots of things to do before Christmas
and a few more when we got back, so hopefully I will be back soon 
with more stuff to look at.

See you next time.

Teleflex Midi Drive.

Just taken these shots for a customer, so I thought I 
would share them.

This is what a Teleflex Midi drive unit looks like 
with the cover off.

Bespoke Window fittings at Widmerpool Hall

I came across these window fittings a while ago, whilst looking
for something else - usually the case.
I do have images of the fittings on the windows, somewhere!
I will try and find them out for another time.

Widmerpool Hall was the home of the AA Patrol Service Training School,
from the 1950's, up to a few years ago, when it was turned into 
luxury apartments.

I got involved with the job via the main contractor, who was very
keen to replicate the window fittings.

These are the two main items, although there were others, which
I may find another time








When I come across the other parts and the images I  took,
I will post those up as well.

Heywood Williams Window Handles

Heywood Williams have been making commercial and domestic
windows for many years and a lot of these were fitted in
Schools, Colleges, Hospitals, Social Housing, Civic Buildings etc.
A great deal of these 30 - 40 year old windows are still in service.
Below is a selection of some of the handles fitted to the earlier series.
I will do the rest of what we have, next time.
Any questions, contact metalwindowparts@gmail.com
