Double Glazed Units Installation

Our service begins with a quick consultation via phone or email to discuss your requirements. To provide an exact quote, we’ll just need to know your door type (Sliding Patio, Single, French, or Bifold) and if your glass features any decorative designs like Georgian grills or leaded patterns. 

If you’re unsure, simply send a photo via text, WhatsApp, or email. With my extensive experience in manufacturing and installing uPVC and aluminium windows, doors and double glazed units; I can provide a fixed price upfront. This gives you total peace of mind, knowing that when I arrive to measure, the cost is already agreed upon.

Peace of mind

We always measure the glass for you. This is not a add on this is all part of our friendly expert service. This ensures In the rare event the measurements are incorrect we are responsible.

The main reasons for this:

  • There is only a 5mm tolerance for error.
  • If the glass is too large, it may not fit; even if it does, the frame may expand in warm weather, potentially causing the glass to break.
  • If it is too small, the edge of the spacer bar will be visible, and the bead may not fit securely.
  • The thickness of the unit can be even more important than its overall size. In UPVC and Aluminum frames.
  • A unit that is too thick will prevent the bead from snapping into place. If it is too thin, the unit will be loose, leading to draughts, and security issues.

Important:

When having a cat flap or pet door fitted, all DGU’s have to be replaced with a new bespoke manufactured toughened unit. This normally takes 7 to 10 days, from measuring to fitting

Solution for Narrow Glass

While many glaziers claim cat flaps can not be fitted in narrow glass, innovative methods exist for restricted widths:
Minimum Width Requirements: Solutions are often available for visible glass widths as narrow as 165mm to 200mm.
Glazing Bar Conversion: The technique involves using a specifically designed glazing bar to install a shorter double-glazed unit above a small uPVC panel, which then houses the cat flap.
Square Hole Tolerance: In some cases, utilizing a shaped hole rather than a circular one allows the installation to remain within safety tolerances for narrow panes.
