In New Zealand we are seeing a quiet revolution in residential glazing, with creative designers making use of internal and external space and designing a new dynamic between the two. In some cases, where large glass spans have been utilised, the dividing line between inner and outer space has effectively been removed.

Southern Steel Windows Ltd., our licenced fabricators in New Zealand , fabricated and installed the sixteen steel glazed and openable door leaves for a home in Queenstown. The house itself looks out on the Remarkable ski field to one side and, on another, to the Coronet Peak ski slopes – both vistas of immense natural beauty.

The design solution was to create a glass wall nearly sixteen metres long and four metres high – utilising the largest double glazed unit size available in New Zealand .

Invercargill-based Southern Steel Windows, is one of the country’s leading suppliers of architectural and fire resistant glass and glazing systems. They use our systems and finish them with a acrythane wet spray mix that can be matched to any colour. This ensures that our systems are as visually appealing as powder coated aluminium.
