At Kayvex Windows, we have been improving homes in the West Sussex area for many years. We see ourselves as local experts and we have gained a reputation for the quality of our products and our impeccable customer service. As locals ourselves, we have an in-depth understanding of the homes in the area, so we know what products would work best for what type of house. Wood-finish flush casement windows will beautifully complement traditional seaside homes, and we can even fit them with Marine-Spec windows to avoid corrosion caused by the sea air.
We formed Kayvex Windows in 1982, and it is now a second-generation family business. Based in Littlehampton, we are proud to cover the Sussex coast, including Chichester, Bognor Regis and Brighton. As locals ourselves, we have a wealth of experience in the different types of houses in the area, and we can recommend the best products to give your home an upgrade without changing the original character of your home. We work hard to be at the forefront of technology to deliver our customers the best products on the market.
We are proud to keep our showroom open Monday to Friday to give you the opportunity to see our products for yourself. We're a company that really cares about our customers, which is why we think it's so important for you not only to see our windows, doors and conservatories before you buy but also to talk to our friendly local staff. They'll be able to suggest new products that you hadn't considered before or help you decide on the best finish for your sash windows or colour for your composite door.
An orangery has glass walls and a glass ceiling like a conservatory, but it will also have dwarf walls, pillars and a solid edge to the roof. They were used to grow citrus trees from Southern Europe, as they wouldn't have survived outside in the bitter English winter. They were glamorous status symbols among the wealthy, and you can often seen them attached to stately homes even today. Now they are accessible to everyone and can be a practical and beautiful way to extend your home. Many people confuse the two, but there are clear differences between an orangery and a conservatory.
Lean-to conservatories will attach to one of your structural walls, but foundations will still need to be dug to ensure your conservatory is as stable as possible for years to come. Before we begin the installation, Kayvex will need to send a surveyor to your home to take a look at the site. They will test your soil, which will help us work out the depth of foundation you'll need, and they can also advise which groundwork and footings will be needed. This will help us ensure your conservatory is completely safe and stable and lasts for as long as possible.
When you want to enjoy views of your garden, but want extra privacy, noise reduction and energy efficiency, our tiled roof conservatories are perfect for you. Visit our showroom or contact us today for a free quote. Not only is it possible to put a "proper" roof on your conservatory, it is quick, easy and cost-efficient to do so. The tiled roofs we put on conservatories are lightweight (often the same weight or lighter than a full glass roof) and we can match the tile colour to that of your house so it blends in seamlessly.
Looking for inspiration for your Victorian conservatory? Download our brochure and see some of the previous installations we've carried out. You can also visit our Littlehampton showroom and see some conservatories up close to get ideas for your own build or arrange a visit from a surveyor for a no-obligation quote. A Victorian conservatory has a rounded, bay shape and is finished off with a pitched roof in either glass or tile. You can choose a three-facet bay, which looks like a larger version of a bay window, or a five-facet style for a more curved design, but with slightly smaller windows.
All the products that Kayvex install are designed to last for many years. However, for your peace of mind, we also offer an insurance-backed guarantee that covers all sorts of eventualities. After installation, if anything breaks, suffers damage, or simply isn't performing as expected, then all you need to do is contact the Kayvex team. At our discretion, we will replace or repair defective windows or doors for free, whether you've chosen our flush casement windows or composite doors. This service is available for ten years after the item's manufacture, allowing you to enjoy our excellent service for many years after your purchase.
Lantern roof conservatories are an alternative to a glass roof that still let in lots of natural light. The lantern is built into a rectangular space in the ceiling, with pitched glass panes that create a tiered effect. You then have a decorative cornice on the outside to hide the guttering. Lantern roofs bring in lots of light and allow you to enjoy views of the sky. They can be added to existing conservatories, or a new conservatory can be built with one. When compared to a tiled, insulated roof, a roof lantern can lose slightly more heat.
Whether you're tired of the appearance of your windows, or they aren't offering enough protection from the elements, Kayvex is here to help. We can install brand new windows in your West Sussex home, making your home more stylish, eco-friendly and secure. West Sussex has a wide variety of house styles, from classic to modern, and the Kayvex Windows team know what works and what doesn't in this area. We can help you choose a style of window that blends in perfectly with the architecture and era of your home, making the most of its unique character and charm.
We want our bifold doors to be strong and durable, which is why we always use a bottom track. This ensures that you have a smooth opening and closing mechanism, rather than having the doors hanging from the ceiling. The unobtrusive bottom rack means you can slide your doors open and closed in a single movement, and they will glide effortlessly across the track, giving you a beautiful indoor-outdoor space. First, we make the doors in our state of the art factory to your precise specifications, but as soon as we have them and deliver them to your home, we can install them in one day.
If you'd like to find out more about patio doors, get a free no-obligation quote by visiting our local showroom or contacting us. A good patio door should be easy to open and close, but also be secure when it's shut. Most patio doors have a handle with a lever, which you flick to release the lock, and you can then open the patio doors as much as you like. Because these doors have both top and bottom rollers, no matter what size they are, the process should be smooth and easy. Kayvex's team of installers will check your doors are operating properly before they leave the site and will show you how to use your doors.
Kayvex can help you with design inspiration for your front door. We offer lots of colours, designs, and decorative finishes that allow you to add character to your home.

Come and visit the showroom to find your dream doors or get in touch to find out more. If you're looking for the least expensive option for a door, uPVC is usually the cheapest.
If your fascias or roof trim are looking worn and tired and you suspect they need replacing, get in touch with Kayvex today. We can advise on the best products to suit you and how you can weatherproof and protect your home. You may not know its name, but you will have seen Fascias on many homes. It's a board that runs along the roofline and is visible for the exterior of your home. It looks as if it has been placed there to add an elegant finish, but it also serves an important purpose. The fascia often holds gutters in place while simultaneously protecting the roof and the inside of your home from moisture or damp.
Casement windows are one of our most popular styles, and over the years we've perfected them with better insulation for lower energy bills, exterior noise reduction and better security. This ensures that when you fit our windows, your home feels safe, secure and comfortable. Casement windows can also be fitted with extra locks for additional security. Our casement windows have been certified as Secured by Design, a police initiative that encourages quality, innovative design to help reduce crime.
From robust front doors to stylish patio doors, at Kayvex, you will find a range of doors that can completely change the look of your property. From getting a perfect size to choosing colours and finishes you love, Kayvex is the place to find the right door.

Or, you can contact the team to get your free, no-obligation quote. Edwardian conservatories, sometimes known as Georgian conservatories, balance modern and traditional looks. They're an updated version of the classic Victorian conservatory, and generally have a square or rectangular shape and a roof with a high pitch. They usually have a glass roof to let in the sunlight, and can either be built with a dwarf wall, or floor-to-ceiling glass panels.

This ensures you feel safe in your home and can feel confident it's secure when you are away.

Each conservatory is different, and so you'll need different techniques to make your conservatory feel new again. First, identify the issues your conservatory has; have you noticed draughts or cold spots? Are your window fixings old and rattling? Are your furnishings pale and faded from exposure to the sun's UV rays? Perhaps your roof is dirty and stained, or you simply want better insulation to be able to enjoy your conservatory all year round. If you have one, or all, of these issues, then contact us today and we can find the best way to upgrade your conservatory.
Kayvex can design the perfect conservatory to suit your needs. As with all our products, our bespoke conservatories have a 10-year guarantee and are manufactured to the highest standard in our UK-based factory. To get started, simply drop into our showroom or contact us today and we can discuss what you want from your conservatory. A bespoke conservatory is one that is completely tailored to you. You can start with one of our existing styles for inspiration or ask our team to design you something that suits your needs.
Whether you're outgrowing your home, or it just feels a little cramped, our range of conservatories and orangeries are the perfect solution. Conservatories can be an easy way to add a whole new room to your house, which you can use as a living or dining area, space for the kids to play or any other purpose you can think of. Conservatories have improved massively in recent years, and are much more energy efficient, which makes them easier to keep warm in winter and cool in the summer. We can create a conservatory or orangery that's weatherproof, cosy and secure, with comprehensive guarantees on our products.
If you're thinking of having tilt and turn windows installed, or just want to find out more about the types of windows available, contact Kayvex Windows today for a free, no-obligation quote or visit our showroom. Please be aware that, because these windows open inwards, this contemporary option is not suitable for homes where there are curtains or obstacles. Our expert consultants are happy to offer helpful advice and a free quote, so visit your nearest showroom today! Because tilt and turn windows have two mechanisms for opening and locking, you may be worried this makes them less secure.
While conservatories are an excellent way to enjoy more living space and make the most of your outdoor space year-round, they need to be in good condition so you can make the most out of them. Replacement conservatory roofs can upgrade an old conservatory that you rarely use and is cheaper than building a whole new structure. At Kayvex, we do a lot of retrofitted tiled roofs onto existing conservatories. People choose to do this to make their existing conservatory more energy efficient and to make it feel like a more seamless transition between their home and the conservatory.
Gable conservatories let you add space and elegant styling to any home. If you'd like to find out more about this style, visit our showroom to see some examples, or contact us today and we'll be happy to discuss your needs. Either known as a gable or gable end conservatory, this is a classic style that has a heritage feel to it. The main feature that defines a gable conservatory is its roof. Most conservatories have a roof that slopes back at the end, while at the front of a gable, the end of the roof stays upright forming a triangle shape.
You can save money on fans and air conditioning by installing French doors. During the warmer months, take advantage of cool breezes by opening them up wide and letting the air circulate around your room. French doors are made up of two doors that come in the same frame. These doors open outwards into your outdoor space, without a pillar or any obstruction in the middle. Technically, while these are double doors, we see them as one door as they are in one frame. A single door, or two separate doors on two frames, wouldn't be classed as French doors.
Whether you know the kind of porch you want, or need some help with designing it, get in touch with Kayvex. You can also download and browse our porch brochure or drop into our showroom and see the kind of porches that might suit your home. No matter how big or small your porch will be, it will need foundations. This might seem like a big step for such a small space, but if we didn't add foundations, then your porch would be in danger of tipping, subsiding or generally not lasting very long. At Kayvex, we want to give you high-quality porches that you can enjoy for decades to come, which is why we send a surveyor to your house before we even start manufacturing your porch in our factory.
From woodgrain finishes for a classic look, to bright, bold colours to make a statement, composite doors come in all sorts of styles. This means you can find one that adds extra personality to your property. Composite doors are a great investment for your property. Not only do they offer increased security compared to other materials, they offer excellent thermal efficiency. They also come in lots of different styles to suit your property type. Composite doors are built to withstand tough weather conditions, so are perfect for British homes.
