Custom timber fixed windows for Melbourne homes

Also known as ‘picture windows’, fixed timber windows  do not open, and are elegantly framed for durability and timeless charm. These windows help illuminate interior spaces, improve insulation and provide unobstructed views of the outdoors. Functional installations, such as awning windows, can be added to improve airflow and aesthetic appeal.

Fixed timber windows are perfect for commercial and residential spaces where additional light or outside views are more important than ventilation. They’re practical for areas where windows that open are less convenient, such as stairwells or sloped ceilings, and can be installed in floor-to-ceiling spaces, giving views to the outdoors.

With no opening mechanism, fixed glass windows have a clean, modern look and require less maintenance than operable windows. The design maximises light and views while minimising upkeep, making them both practical and stylish. Install them as a feature wall in living rooms, as a decorative addition above doorways or combined with other window designs such as sashless or louvre windows.

With no moving parts, fixed timber windows can be easily customised with different shapes and sizes. They can be manufactured to fit living room walls, giving views to the outdoors or used to open up smaller spaces. Timber frames can be curved or angular to fit popular styles like bay windows, arches and geometric designs.

Install these versatile windows in areas with limited illumination, such as corners and hallways, to transform darker areas into more welcoming ones. Use them to replace wall space, allowing abundant natural light to flood in to brighten your home and create a dramatic or scenic view through to outside zones.

The natural properties of timber combined with the airtight seal of fixed windows help regulate indoor temperatures by minimising heat loss during winter. Strategically placed fixed timber windows admit natural light without raising indoor temperatures, reducing the need for summer cooling and lowering energy bills.

As there is no opening mechanism, fixed wooden windows are easy to care for, requiring only simple maintenance to ensure a long life.

Apply paint or sealant every three to six months to keep your fixed timber windows in top condition. This will protect them from the elements and reduce fading, cracking and other weather-related damage. Ensure proper drainage around the windows and maintain weather seals to keep out drafts and moisture.

Regularly remove the indoor and outdoor dirt and dust that accumulates on your timber frames to maintain the quality of your fixed wooden windows. Use warm water, mild soap and a soft cloth, and avoid harsh chemicals and pressure washers. Examine your window frames periodically and reapply paint and coating as needed to keep them well-protected and looking fresh.

Applying a protective finish safeguards wood from moisture, pests and wear, increasing the lifespan and improving the appearance. Choose from paint grade, stain grade or natural finishes for your fixed timber windows.

Select from double or single glazing—double glazing adds extra protection, improving thermal efficiency and noise reduction. For areas requiring more privacy, choose frosted glass. Ask our team about upgrading to Low-E glass for added insulation.
