Who uses Gretsch-Unitas locks and handles for windows and doors?

    I have a problem....

    The occupier of the apartment next to ours replaced his windows and doors a couple of years back with excellent double-glazing.

    My problem is that the make/name/brand of the windows and doors is nowhere to be seen on them.

    The only maker's name that appears on them is Gretsch-Unitas, on the locks and handles. http://www.g-u.com/en/home.html

    Sadly, the occupier has since passed away.

    So, does anyone know of Irish makers of windows and doors who use Gretsch-Unitas hardware?

    Many thanks.

    D.

    Ps. Is it normal for a manufacturer of double-glazing not to put their name anywhere on the product? Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I'll ask the current occupant to have a look.

    Curiously, in our own house, we have Carlson and Munster Joinery windows and doors. Looking at both of them, there is no indication whatsoever as to which make they are.

    see attached as an example of a stamp in the gap of a double glazed window

    the stamp in this example tells its a munster joinery window, the date of construction of window and the order number.

    not every window has this, but a lot do.

    No code between the panes. So, I, posing a couple of images of the window and hall door.

    If anyone recognizes the make, please let me know.

    Many thanks!
