Glazing

Inside the double glazed sealed unit, the contained air also holds a low level of moisture that could form on the glass if the temperature difference should change. Double glazing reduces noise by absorbing some of the energy and slowing down the vibration frequency as it transfers through the glass and the layer of Argon gas. When the sound wave passes through the other side of the window, the sound wave is slightly diminished and the noise a little quieter.
This, together with concealed draught proofing routed into every edge of the casement, will ensure your casement window functions beautifully and keep you warm and cosy too. Double glazing, while less insulated, allows more sunlight and free solar heat into the home, making it ideal for South, East or West-facing windows. Triple glazing, in contrast, retains more indoor heat and provides a stable temperature, allowing you to sit comfortably by the window regardless of outdoor conditions.

A further application of secondary glazing is thermal insulation and complete draught exclusion. Old, single glazed windows are notorious for letting all the heat escape, resulting in unpleasant cold spots and very expensive heating bills during the long British winters. The perimeter frames are narrow, so remain unobtrusive, and some can accommodate double-glazed units if space permits. Slender profile double glazing can be a good solution and will help raising an existing window toward triple-glazed performance levels without loss of the existing window.

In monetary terms, replacing timber sash windows can often be an expensive affair. Installing secondary glazing on the other hand is a far cheaper and simpler process. The cost saving doesn’t stop there though, as our secondary glazing solution radically reduces heating costs by ensuring the cold weather remains outside.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. For 21 years, our company has proudly manufactured high-quality products in the United Kingdom, ensuring excellence.

In 1984, our uPVC double glazing was created and this quickly became the window of choice for the UK. The primary benefit of double glazing is thermal insulation – to retain heat in a room whilst stopping cold air entering from outside to make the room more energy-efficient. When we install insulation measures, we will paint any areas that will be affected during our work to make good to the existing finish. If, for glass extension example, your windows are decorated to a specific colour, we will need details of your paint finish so that we can match it.
