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.
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.
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.
What changes the final price
Size, frame material, and glass rating drive most of the cost. Colour foil, woodgrain finish, or dual-colour frames raise the bill. Bay or shaped windows cost more because templates are custom. Removal of asbestos-lined sills, scaffolding, and skip hire add separate line items to the quote.
Door material pros and cons
Composite doors combine a timber core with a glass-reinforced plastic skin and resist warping. Solid timber looks great but swells in wet seasons. uPVC doors stay stable but can fade after 10 years of strong sun. Steel doors give the best security but need a thermal break to stop cold transfer.
Measuring the opening the right way
Width and height are taken brick to brick in 3 spots: top, middle, bottom. The smallest reading sets the frame size after a 10 mm fitting gap all around. Old houses may have out-of-square frames, so note the diagonal difference. Never trust a quote based on rough measurements taken by phone.
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.
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.
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.
U-value and what it means for your bill
The U-value measures heat loss through the whole unit, frame plus glass. Lower numbers mean better insulation. A standard double-glazed unit sits around 1.4, while better options drop to 1.0 or below. Ask the supplier for the certified U-value for the exact frame and glass combination you order.
