Browse Forums Windows & Doors 1 Oct 22, 2018 12:59 pm Hi just looking into some options for replacing our timber windows. I am just about to begin to strip the paint and repaint and seal them. That said, I am after looking at replacing the entire window - to the same size. We have interior plantation shutters that have been installed on the interior. AS they were retrofitted they couldnt install the shutters to line up flush with plaster as the windows didnt have enough depth. Ideally I'd like to enlarge the window a little so that these shutters can fit inside. It would involve ordering new windows and perhaps englarging the opening. At the moment they are single glazed windows too. I'd want to use double glazed windows.

By being not so deep, an aluminium window may help, or you might even push the new window forward and batten around it to leave enough room for the shutters to be flush.
