Lightweight Exterior Window Cills
Surface-fixed, built-in and wall-head window cill profiles for different wall build-ups, engineered to your window opening width.
About This Profile Family
Our window cills (also called sills) are a lightweight alternative designed to replicate traditional stone cills. Window cill profiles are supplied as surface-fixed (face-fixed) cills, bonded to the wall face under the window's own subsill, or as built-in or wall-head cills, which sit on the outer leaf under the window frame with square stop ends. Sizes cover window openings from 460mm up to 2260mm. Project-specific application guidance is supplied where required.

Installation Guidance
- ·Sealant between the window cill and window profile (by others).
- ·Adjoining wall finish or facing brickwork as per project specification (by others).
- ·Profiles are normally fixed with a 3-strip adhesive bed and Insta-Stik secondary fixing. Mechanical fixing is rarely needed; where the size or complexity of a profile calls for it, this is reviewed at design stage.
