Why Residence 9 Windows Are the Ultimate Upgrade for Your Home
In a world of fast-paced trends and ever-evolving technology, the homes we cherish often tell stories rooted in history and tradition. Whether you live in a centuries-old cottage or a modern new-build inspired by classic design, there’s one architectural detail that makes all the difference: the windows.
Residence 9 windows are not just replacements—they are a reimagining. They offer homeowners the rare opportunity to upgrade to the very best of modern window engineering without sacrificing the charm of traditional 19th-century timber designs.
Let’s explore what makes Residence 9 a standout choice and why it could be the most worthwhile home improvement you’ll make.
Modern Engineering, Timeless Style
Unlike standard double-glazed windows, which often prioritize function over form, Residence 9 delivers on both. These windows are meticulously crafted to replicate authentic 19th-century British timber windows, making them ideal for heritage properties, conservation areas, and anyone looking to retain period character.
Where traditional timber may rot, warp or require endless upkeep, Residence 9 windows are virtually maintenance-free, with a durable finish that retains its beauty year after year. It’s classic style without the compromise.
A True Timber Alternative Without the Hassle
If you’ve ever owned timber windows, you’ll know the challenges: peeling paint, draughts, and high maintenance costs. Residence 9 takes all the elegance of timber and replaces the weaknesses with superior, low-maintenance innovation.

Designed for Conservation, Built for the Future
Residence 9 isn’t just beautiful—it’s smart. With nine insulating chambers (compared to the usual three or five), 100mm frame width, and the highest CEN A wall thickness classification, these windows offer a significant upgrade in:
- Thermal Efficiency – Achieving A++ WER ratings, U-values as low as 0.74 W/m²K (triple glazed), far surpassing UK Building Regulations.
- Acoustic Performance – The thicker frames and advanced chamber design reduce external noise.
- Security – With internal beading, heavy-duty hinge accommodation and screw retention reinforcements, your home is safer and stronger.
Built to Complement Every Home
Don’t let the traditional inspiration fool you—Residence 9 windows suit modern living beautifully. From sleek single doors to elegant bay and bow windows, conservatories to Juliet balconies, you’re not short on choice. All designs are fully compatible with contemporary needs and lifestyles.
Prefer a bold colour palette or a classic woodgrain finish? Choose from 21 heritage-inspired colours—or request a custom RAL shade to match your dream aesthetic.
Effortless Maintenance, Down to the Details
A particularly thoughtful feature is the fully foiled ‘easy clean’ rebate—not only does this give the appearance of painted timber inside the frame, but it also avoids dirt-trapping corners. Wipe it down in seconds, and you’re good to go.

Let’s talk numbers. Compared to regular double-glazed units, Residence 9 offers:
- Up to 30% greater energy efficiency
- Better internal climate control
- Reduced reliance on heating and cooling systems
