Oak Frame Conservatories
Transform Your Home With a Stylish Oak-Framed Conservatory
Oak framed conservatories are elegant, traditional home extensions that combine the strength and beauty of oak with large areas of glass, creating a bright, open space. These types of conservatories are often referred to as oak sunrooms because they provide a relaxing environment that can be used for dining, working, or simply unwinding while enjoying views of the surrounding landscape.
Oak’s natural aesthetic blends beautifully with both modern and historic buildings, making it a popular choice, especially for listed properties where a traditional look is required by planning authorities. The openness and natural light they offer make oak conservatories a timeless and refreshing addition to any home.

Modern Oak-Framed Conservatories
The key to oak frame conservatories is paying attention to the glazing detailing. All of the examples seen here use a system of ‘Direct Glazing’ which involves clamping the glazing and joinery units to the outside face of the Oak frame with air-dried oak cappings, a time-proven system.
Due to the growth of interest in oak framing, a whole industry has grown around companies like ours, able to provide a specialist glazing package to supply and install. They can be found on our links page. As you would expect our frames use best-quality oak in order to minimise any defects which may adversely affect the glazing.
To make a usable and comfortable room all year round, controlling the temperatures will be vital. We advocate careful thought as to how elements of solid roofing or walls might combine with the glazing, to allow a good level of insulation and to offset the lower thermal performance of the glazed areas. One successful project is The Stables.
