Thame is one of Oxfordshire’s best-kept secrets — a handsome market town whose broad High Street and generous town centre date back to a medieval planned layout, yet whose residential streets tell a story that spans several centuries of growth. Along the Cornmarket and Upper High Street you will find timber-framed houses and Georgian townhouses sitting comfortably beside later Victorian and Edwardian additions, while the outer edges of the town have seen steady development from 1960s estates through to the popular new-build communities at Thame Park and Lea Park. Positioned midway between Oxford and Aylesbury, Thame has become an increasingly sought-after commuter town, and homeowners here are investing in their properties accordingly. Upgrading to modern double glazing — whether heritage-style sash windows for a period frontage or sleek aluminium bifold doors opening onto a south-facing garden — is one of the most effective ways to improve both the comfort and the value of a Thame home.
Windows & Doors We Install in Thame
We supply and fit a full range of aluminium and uPVC windows and doors for every type of property in and around Thame. From the conservation-area town centre where sympathetic design is essential, to the newer developments on the southern and eastern fringes where contemporary aluminium glazing is in strong demand, we carry the right product for every situation and install to FENSA-registered standards throughout.
Every Vitrums installation is certified by FENSA and protected by a CPA insurance-backed warranty for your complete peace of mind.
Aluminium Windows & Doors
Aluminium glazing has become the go-to choice for Thame homeowners looking to bring more natural light into their living spaces. The slim profiles and clean lines of modern aluminium frames pair beautifully with both contemporary extensions and older properties where a discreet, modern intervention is preferred at the rear of the house.
- Bifold doors — Open up your kitchen or dining area to the garden with Cortizo bifold doors. Available in configurations from two to seven panels, they are ideal for Thame’s generous rear plots.
- Sliding doors — A popular alternative where wall space is limited. Inline and lift-and-slide mechanisms offer effortless operation with floor-to-ceiling glass panels.
- French doors — Classic proportions in an aluminium frame, perfect for period properties where a traditional opening is preferred.
- Casement windows — Slim sightlines, excellent thermal performance, and a wide choice of RAL colours to suit any property style.
- Slimline roof lanterns — Our Korniche lanterns are perfect for flooding flat-roof extensions and orangeries with natural light — a feature we install regularly in Thame kitchen-diner conversions.
- Flush casement windows — sleek aluminium flush windows with clean sightlines sitting perfectly flat within the frame for a contemporary look
- Internal doors — stunning Crittall-style aluminium internal doors and room dividers bringing an industrial-chic aesthetic to your interior
Brands we install: Cortizo, Korniche
uPVC Windows & Doors
For the period properties along Thame’s High Street and the surrounding residential roads, high-quality uPVC delivers excellent energy efficiency, low maintenance, and the ability to closely replicate traditional timber detailing.
- Casement windows — Fully sculptured or chamfered profiles, internally beaded for security, and A-rated as standard. A reliable choice for the many 1960s-1990s homes around Thame.
- Sliding sash windows — Designed to replicate the look of original timber sashes, with run-through horns, deep bottom rails, and Georgian bar options. Essential for period-fronted properties in the Thame conservation area.
- French doors — Wide-opening patio access with low thresholds and multi-point locking as standard.
- Single doors — Practical side and utility entrance doors in a range of colours and styles.
- Sliding doors — smooth-gliding patio doors that maximise natural light and garden views without encroaching on interior space
- Rio Inline windows — a modern tilt-and-turn system combining sleek aesthetics with excellent ventilation and easy cleaning
- Bay & bow windows — elegant projecting windows that add character, space and panoramic views to any room
- Flush casement windows — Rehau Rio Flush windows with a modern flat profile sitting flush within the frame for a sleek contemporary finish
Brand we install: REHAU
Entrance Doors
The front door sets the tone for the entire property. We offer three distinct door ranges, each combining security, thermal efficiency, and lasting kerb appeal.
- Palladio composite doors — Monocoque fibreglass construction that will not warp, crack, or fade. Traditional panel designs sit perfectly alongside Thame’s period architecture.
- Dynamic composite doors — A solid timber-core composite available in a broad palette of colours, offering excellent value without compromising on quality.
- Gerda steel doors — RC3 security rated and thermally broken. A premium option for homeowners who want the highest level of front door security.
- Aluminium front doors — premium aluminium entrance doors combining bold contemporary design with outstanding security and thermal performance

What Our Customers Say
“We had Cortizo bifold doors fitted across the back of our kitchen extension in Thame. The difference in natural light is extraordinary — the garden feels like part of the room now. The installation team were efficient, tidy, and clearly experienced. Could not be happier with the result.”
— Mr and Mrs H., Lea Park, Thame
“Vitrum replaced the front windows on our Georgian townhouse in the High Street with REHAU sliding sash. They look completely authentic from the outside, and the improvement in warmth and noise reduction has been remarkable. The conservation officer approved them without any issues.”
— Mrs P., High Street, Thame
“We chose a Palladio composite front door in anthracite grey and it has completely transformed the look of our house. The old door was draughty and dated — this one is solid, secure, and beautifully finished. Excellent service from start to finish.”
