One last visit to Moor Park, and this time it’s the quietest room in the house.

The lounge has glass on three sides, so the piano gets the garden as its backdrop instead of a wall.

Corner to corner, the frames stay slim enough that the lawn, the hedges and the trees read as one picture rather than three separate windows.

Curtains are there for the evenings. During the day nobody draws them.

From the kitchen the same idea carries through, past the planter on the island and straight out through a sliding panel to the terrace.

That’s the brief on a house like this: the glass should frame the garden, not compete with it.

There is no rain inside your home, so the only water that ever reaches the bottom of an internal steel frame comes off your mop and your floor cleaner.

That bottom rail sits in a wet line every time the floor is washed, and tile cleaner is harsher on a coating than rainwater has ever been.

Add the splash from a shower room or a utility and that edge is damp more often than any window on the house.

It is also the one part of the door nobody inspects, because the eye goes straight to the glass and the handle.

What decides whether any of that matters is not the steel, it is what happened to the frame before the colour went on.

Wet paint sprayed onto bare steel chips from a single knock with a hoover, and once moisture gets under the film it lifts the coating from below.

Done properly the frame is shot blasted first, then zinc primed or fully galvanised where the room is a wet one, then powder coated and baked in an oven so the colour hardens onto the steel.

That is why a galvanised frame holds its own in an en-suite, a utility or beside a pool, and why a deep scratch down to bare metal is a repair rather than a failure.

So before you sign anything, ask three things: is the frame shot blasted before priming, is the primer zinc or full galvanising, and is the colour powder coated and oven baked rather than sprayed on.

Our steel is hand-welded and finished that way as standard, supplied and fitted by one team with a 10 year written guarantee on the installation.

Most rear extensions stop at the wall, so the garden side turns into somewhere you visit rather than somewhere you cook, eat and sit.

Slide the panels back and the island, the outdoor worktop and both tables read as one long room with a lawn at the end of it.

The floor carries that idea as much as the glass does, running out at the same level on both sides so nobody steps over anything carrying plates.

Closed, the frames stay slim enough that the garden is still there from the far end of the kitchen.

Back at Moor Park, ADP handled this as one team from survey to fit, so the glass line landed the way it was drawn.

art one from Moor Park, and this one is about the space in front of the glass, not just the glass itself.

The rear of the house runs behind a covered colonnade, broken into bays by square columns.

Behind every bay sits a slim sliding opening, so the wall itself all but disappears and each bay reads as its own room open to the garden.

Because the roofline covers the glass line, the doors can stay open through weather that would usually send everyone back inside.

Slide one open at the dining end and the covered terrace, the table and the lawn beyond it all become one space.

The hanging lamps stay under the roofline, the chairs sit two steps from the grass, and dinner happens with the garden running straight past the last place setting.

From above the scale becomes obvious, colonnade, pool and lawn sitting under the same red tiled roofline, every opening along that rear wall carrying the same slim black frame.

That is the point of a slim sliding system on a house this size. It disappears enough to let a covered veranda do the work a wall used to do.

Take the post out of a corner and the roof above it still has to be carried by something.

That something is a cantilever, built from a frame of steel beams tying the walls together, which makes it a structural decision rather than a glazing one.

A beam over a room is normally designed to Span/360, but doors that fold and roll need Span/500 or 5 mm, whichever is smaller.

Five millimetres of drop is enough to pinch the tracks, stop the locks reaching their keeps and leave the seals on a corner never meeting at all.

The beam also has to land on concrete padstones, because brickwork on its own is usually too soft to take the load at the bearings.

Even then the panel has its own physics, because a triple-glazed leaf can weigh over 100 kg and only stays square once the fitter packs it and lets the glass work as a brace.

We do not calculate your structure.

We tell you the tolerance your engineer has to hold, so the corner you drew is the corner you get.

Save this before your structural drawings are signed off.

Part two in Edgware, and this set does the walk that catches most projects out: from the terrace round to the front door.

At the back the wall opens twice, and both openings are bifolds.

One runs the full width of the living room, with the panels stacked out of the way against the brick.

The other reaches the kitchen and folds back around the corner, so there is nothing left standing in the corner at all.

Step back and the elevation is glazed on three levels: the two openings, the slim letterbox windows set into the brickwork, and the dormer at the top.

From directly above you see the part nobody photographs, a large flat rooflight with a smaller one beside it and a fully glazed roof over the extension below.

Then you walk round to the front, and nothing changes: same aluminium, same frame colour, same detailing, down to the glazed panels either side of the front door and the roof windows in the tiles.

Every opening in this house came from one glazing team on design, supply and installation, which is why the front and the back read as one project.

Glass in one wall only gets you so far into a deep extension.

This project in Edgware is glazed on more than one plane.

The garden wall slides fully back and the same stone carries straight on outside.

There is also a lantern in the roof and a flat rooflight further along, so the depth of the plan never sits in shadow.

In the kitchen the window folds out over the worktop and turns the sink run into a serving hatch onto the terrace.

None of that works when three different suppliers are guessing at each other’s tolerances.

Every piece of glazing in this house is ours, from the sliding wall to the roof lights, with one team on design, supply and installation.

The last frame is a hint at part two.

A second room should not cost you the light in the first one.

A stud wall here would have given the bedroom its privacy and taken the daylight off everything behind it.

Instead the divide is a floor to ceiling glazed screen, made to the opening rather than to a catalogue size.

Clear panes keep the light moving through the flat, and satin glass sits where the bed needs cover.

The two sliding panels close the room off at night and take up no floor space when they are open.

The frame was finished in a soft light shade rather than the usual black, so it sits with the plaster and the oak instead of cutting across them.

One team from the first survey to the final fit, so nothing is left to guesswork on site.

In a Conservation Area, a plastic window on the front elevation is refused almost as a matter of routine, and timber, detailed properly, is what gets signed off.

Where an Article 4 Direction applies, permitted development rights are gone and your replacement has to go past a planning officer before anything is fitted.

Plastic tends to fail on three visual points: the frame reads too thick, the surface too glossy, and the profile sits too flat against a period elevation.

Timber passes when the detail is right, with glazing bars often under 18 mm, sash horns reinstated and the external profile matched to the original.

Performance is not the trade-off people expect, because vacuum glazing is around 8 mm thick and fits a slim historic sash where a modern sealed unit will not.

At the rear the rules usually loosen, and on an interwar house that originally had slim steel windows, Heritage 47 steel-look aluminium is often accepted.

What decides more applications than any of it is what you put on paper.

A heritage statement and section drawings at 1:5 show the officer exactly what they are being asked to approve.

Save this before you speak to your council.

A loft landing with a gable ceiling is where most suppliers stop and offer you a square opening.

The usual answer is a standard frame with a boxed panel filling the triangle above it.

You lose the height, and the shape of the roof disappears behind plasterboard.

Here the frame was made to the exact angle of the apex instead.

Three bays, full height glass, and one leaf that opens in the middle.

Open or closed, the beams read as one line from the landing into the room behind.

That is what bespoke actually means. The opening decides the shape, not a catalogue size.
