Are Crittall-style windows and doors right for your home?

Published

on

Crittall-style windows and doors are undeniably popular right now. The thin steel frames and unobstructed views they offer are both modern and timeless. Dating back to the 1880s, you can find this style on many edifices, from homes to factories and even on the British Parliament buildings.

Minimalist but striking, steel-frame windows and doors can look either historical or contemporary, depending on the type of building they adorn. If you’re thinking about making a change, they’re a great choice for most types of homes.

In addition to their more traditional uses, these kinds of windows and doors are increasingly being used in interior design. They allow light to easily pass from one room to another and in an open concept home, they can be used to mark off key areas. They’re also a great option for entranceways.

Crittall-style windows and doorframes are historically black, but today’s technology allows the metal to have almost any color, thereby allowing them to seamlessly fit into your home.
