Turrets & Clock Tower Designs

British Standard BS EN ISO 9001

Yeoman Turrets and Clock Towers are manufactured under a strict Quality Assurance Scheme in accordance with ISO 9001. The quality control policy is maintained throughout the company from raw material purchasing through to manufacture of units.

Types of Finials & Weathervanes

Finials are manufactured from GRP and are securely fixed to the turret with a threaded bar and laminated into position.

Weathervanes are manufactured from beaten and welded mild steel with hand forged scrollwork. They are then shot blasted, hot zinc sprayed, primed and finished in black top coat.

The vanes are balanced and have a ball bearing to ensure free and accurate movement in the wind.

Types of Turrets

The Yeoman range of turrets and clock towers are produced using the hand lay-up moulding technique. All materials used are British Standard approved, chopped strand mat to BS3496, woven rovings to BS3691 and polyester resin to BS3532. All are through coloured, and pigments used are rated to BS1006. The specification offers a high degree of weather resistance ensuring your Yeoman Turret or Clock Tower will give many years of excellent service.

The standard side panel of both the Grange and Rectory turrets is shiplap boarding whilst the Manor and Ross turrets have flat side panels.

Aluminium louvre panels can be fitted if required, to give airflow to the roof space or to provide an outlet for a mechanical ventilation system supplied and fitted by others.

Types of Clocks

All clocks are manufactured by Hawkins Clock - one of the country's leading manufacturers. A standard 240 volt supply is required.

The clocks are mounted directly on the turret but can be spaced away to allow rear illumination. The clocks feature a two speed mechanism which allows for seasonal alterations. A fully automated restart unit is available as an option for time changes and restarts after power failure.
