Our Story: A Legacy of Craftsmanship
At Touchstone Glazing Solutions, we pride ourselves on our rich history and heritage as master craftspeople in the art of stained glass and glazing. With over 25 years of expertise, we have honed our skills to develop innovative products that meet the demands of thermally efficient glazing solutions for historic and listed buildings. Our passion is to create windows and doors that not only protect the fabric of these precious buildings but also maintain their original beauty and charm.
Our Commitment to Conservation
Our journey began with a deep understanding of the need for thermally efficient glazing solutions that didn't compromise the integrity of historic and listed buildings. We recognized the importance of preserving our cultural heritage while meeting modern insulation and environmental concerns. Our commitment to conservation is unwavering, and we have worked tirelessly to develop solutions that balance these dual demands.
Our Unique Glazing Solutions
Our patented Insulead glazing system is a frameless, fully drained, and thermally broken solution that fits seamlessly into the original window opening. This innovative design allows historic and listed buildings to be double glazed without compromising their original fabric. Our Insulead units feature a lead perimeter edging that is fully soldered at the joints, making them perfect for listed buildings and heritage sites.
Innovative Design and Craftsmanship
Our stainless steel doors and Steelyte opening casements are designed and manufactured in-house, showcasing our dedication to quality and attention to detail. These bespoke stainless steel doors offer minimum sightlines and the highest level of thermal efficiency. Our opening casements are crafted from stainless steel and are designed to mimic the aesthetic of traditional metal windows while providing the benefits of modern insulation.
Experience and Expertise
Backed by decades of experience and expertise, we have developed a range of glazing solutions that cater to the specific needs of architects, homeowners, and conservation officers. Our products have been accepted by Historic England in Grade II, II*, and Grade I listed buildings, and we take pride in our ability to provide bespoke solutions for even the most challenging restoration projects.
