About Windows & Doors
Glazing beads and how to remove them
Glazing beads hold the glass inside the frame. External beads are safer against intruders, internal beads are easier to service. Ask which type you have and how to pop a bead out without breaking it. Keep a spare bead set aside in case one cracks during future reglazing.
Disposal of the old units
Old glass and timber frames count as construction waste and should not go in a normal bin. Ask the fitter to break down the old units on site and take them away, leaving the driveway clean. Keep the waste transfer note with your invoice for proof of legal disposal.
Signs your old frame has failed
Condensation inside the glass means the seal is gone. Drafts around the edges point to broken gaskets or warped timber. Soft black spots on sills show water has pooled for months. Stiff handles and cracked putty mean the unit is past repair and replacement is the safer choice now.
Common mistakes during fitting
Foam filling the entire gap stops the frame from moving with temperature changes. Packers left behind under the sill create cold bridges. Silicone applied over dirty trim peels within months. Ask the fitter how they seal the perimeter and how they pack the frame before screwing it in.
Seals, gaskets and the compression test
Good windows depend on rubber gaskets that compress evenly around the sash. Ask to see the gasket profile and check that corners are mitred or vulcanised, not glued. After fitting, close the sash on a piece of paper; if you can pull it out without tearing, the compression is too loose.
Acoustic glass for busy streets
If you face a road or railway, acoustic laminated glass cuts noise by 6 to 10 decibels over standard double glazing. The panes have a sticky interlayer that dampens vibration. Ask for the Rw rating in writing and compare it across quotes rather than trusting vague terms like soundproof.
Glass options that change the price
Double glazing is now the baseline for most homes. Triple glazing drops heat loss more but adds weight and cost. Low-E coatings and argon gas fill raise the U-value rating. Laminated glass blocks noise near busy roads. Ask for the exact U-value and glass thickness before signing anything.
Security fittings to look for
Windows should carry PAS 24 or Secured by Design certification. Multi-point locking on doors needs hooks at the top and bottom, not just a centre latch. Ask for 3-star euro cylinders, anti-snap barrels, and hinge bolts on the inside frame. A 1-star cylinder is too easy to bypass.
Guarantees and paperwork to keep
Ask for a written warranty covering frames, glass units, and hardware separately. Sealed glass units often carry a 10-year fog-free guarantee. Installation labour should be warranted for at least 2 years. Keep the FENSA or equivalent certificate for insurance and future property sales.
Ironmongery that survives daily use
Hinges, handles and multi-point locks carry the weight of the door every day. Stainless steel or marine-grade hinges resist rust near coastal air. Ask how many locking points the strip has, and check that cylinders carry a current security rating rather than a brand logo alone.
