The glass you choose changes how your windows and doors look, how warm your home stays and how much privacy you have. We glaze every window and door to suit the property, from modern double glazed units to hand made stained glass.
Choosing the right glass for your property

Double Glazed Units
Most popularDoors & windows
Our most popular choice. Sealed double glazed units keep your home warm and help new windows and doors meet today’s Building Regulations. Combined with duplex glazing bars, they can still give a traditional look.

Fineo Glass
Heritage homesReplaces single glazing
Fineo is a slim vacuum glass that fits the narrow rebates of original timber windows. It’s ideal for heritage and listed properties, or anywhere single glazing needs upgrading without changing the look of the frames.

Stained Glass
Made by handDoors & windows
Every stained glass panel is made by hand, so the design can be traditional or completely new, made to suit your property. A favourite for front doors, side panels and fanlights.

How we create the look of small panes
|
Duplex Bars
To achieve traditional looking narrow bars in double glazed windows, we use the duplex system. Narrow timber glazing bars are fitted to the outer faces of the glass, on both the inside and the outside. The double glazed units have false spacer bars fitted between the panes, so it looks like a set of individual panes.
We have found duplex bars a very effective way of matching original features while meeting the U values required by today’s Building Regulations. |
Traditional Bars
If small panes are needed in a single glazed window, they are made with traditional glazing bars, with each pane glazed separately.
Duplex bars can’t be used on single glazing, because they need the special spacers built into a double glazed unit to line up with. |
Tell us about your property and what you need from the glass, whether that’s warmth, privacy or keeping a period look. We’ll recommend the right option and provide a detailed quote.
