Cambuslang has Victorian terraced housing near the centre and Halfway, mostly retrofitted with uPVC during the 1990s and 2000s. Post-war estate housing through Westburn and Vicarland is also mostly uPVC stock. The 1990s-onwards estate development around Newton and Rosebank uses composite doors with current-spec multipoint locks.
