Hi

Due to a supplier mixing up dates, I'm in need of the following to arrive by Friday 7th April at the latest:
Triangular window
UPVC
Light grey exterior
White interior
Opening
Frosted glass

Any suggestions of suppliers welcome!

Many thanks

I fear rocking horse poo may be easier to get. I'd be on the phone to every local firm and praying given how busy everyone is, Hollowseal in Cambs might be worth a try but I don't know if they do frames or just dg units.

Triangular bit of plywood is the answer. Gives you time to sort something properly.

A uPVC window will be a stormproof style casement. Friction hinges won't work on a triangular window.

How are you going to hold the sash open?

Thanks for the offer but we're going to wait a while (need to check some dimensions anyway).
