A bay window is an arrangement of three or more individual window units. A bay window adds a projection to the wall which can be stood in, adding a stylish look from the outside and a great place to sit and relax on the inside. Bay windows can be crafted from PVC-U, timber or aluminium double glazing to fit with the style of any property.
Bay windows allow you to enjoy panoramic views of your outside space and are a perfect place to relax. Adding the sense of space and offering more light, due to the extra panes, whilst becoming a beautiful feature by proving charming character to your home. With a range of material options and colours to choose from, a bay window can be a unique and inspiring addition to your home.
Mercury’s bay windows are A+ rated as standard and made-to-measure so they fit your home perfectly and reduce heat loss. The space between these panes is filled with Argon gas and the spacers are coated with a low-conduction material to hold in more heat. Mercury’s bay windows are also fitted with weather-resistant Q-Lon seals which create a tight fit to keep out draughts and help keep your home warmer in the winter.
With Mercury bay windows you can rest assured that they are safe and secure as they exceed the level of security demanded by British Standards. An internal glazing bead prevents the glass from being removed from the outside for added peace of mind.
Mercury bay windows add character to a home and are a stylish addition to all properties. Mercury’s PVC-U bay windows are available in a range of colours to give your home a personalise aesthetic, while Mercury’s aluminium bay windows add a contemporary look and complement the style and shape of the window.
A bay window and bow window are similar and sometimes difficult to tell apart from the outside, but they do have one clear difference. A bow window is a unit planted onto the wall and therefore the projection created cannot be stood in, whereas a bay window adds a projection to the wall which can be stood in from the inside.
