Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Economy Level timber window range?
The Economy Level range is an A-grade solid meranti timber window range designed for low-cost residential developments. It uses the same quality timber and craftsmanship as the mid-level range, but with slightly thinner timber sections and cranked steel hinges and peg stays instead of friction hinges and brass handles — making it the most widely used timber window range in South Africa.
What is the layout of the WD52F?
The WD52F has a side-opening casement on one side and a top-hung fanlight on the other, providing ventilation at both side and top level across the full 1060mm width and 1460mm height.
What is a top-hung fanlight?
A fanlight is a top-hung opening sash hinged at the top and opening outward from the bottom, allowing high-level ventilation. On the WD52F it provides an additional ventilation point independently of the side casement.
Does this window include glass?
No. Glass is not included. Timber windows are supplied as frames only — glass must be sourced and fitted separately by your glazier.
What direction does this window open?
Both the side casement and the fanlight open outward. South African timber windows are supplied for outward opening only as standard.
What hardware is supplied?
The WD52F is supplied with yellow passivated cranked steel hinges and yellow passivated steel peg and stays for both the side casement and the fanlight. No additional hardware is required.
What are the frame opening dimensions?
The frame opening is 1060mm wide × 1460mm high × 55mm deep. Always verify your wall opening dimensions before ordering.
What is the lead time?
The current lead time is 14–21 days from order confirmation. Nationwide delivery across South Africa is available.
