Kitchen Orangery
All of the above applies plus the use of laminated hardwood concertina doors with the threshold sunk to allow the kitchen tiles and garden decking to become one when opened up. An extractor tube was built up through the lead decking to allow the cooker to be positioned in the middle of the floor creating a working galley from which to cook while watching Jammie Oliver on the plasma screen at the other end of the room.

A recent Heritage Hardwood Orangery using 'k' argon gas filled sealed unit glazing plus Unicomfort glass to roof lantern. Window / door frames, lantern joists and fascias were all made using certificated seasoned hardwood from renewable sources and treated with 3 spray applied coats of Sikkens wood treatment. The external cappings holding down the glass on the lantern were made from powder coated aluminum as were the roof vents to ensure a maintenance free roof .Steel portal frames throughout are always used by Heritage Conservatories and Orangeries to support the significant weight from the lead decking, another feature ensuring the permanent peak performance of the building. Inside the plaster finished ceiling conceals 2 separate microspot lighting circuits operated off dimmer switches as is the ceiling chandelier to achieve many lighting moods. Underfloor heating adds the final touch of luxury to the Heritage building.

Whilst our clients live in a property of substantial size, they required a conservatory to grant them more space for entertaining and parties. The brief wasn’t particularly specific other than for a conservatory with a ‘wow factor’, that was warm in winter and cool in summer that could be used on a daily basis. The clients confidence in us as a company to deliver this solution was so high, that they spent the first month of construction in New York leaving us to get on and build it.
