Secondary glazing involves installing a slimline window in front of your existing windows. This method offers all the benefits of double glazing, without the need to replace your current windows. It’s an excellent option when window replacement isn't possible or necessary, especially for heritage properties, listed buildings, or any home seeking improved energy efficiency and noise insulation.
With secondary glazing, you can experience enhanced warmth, security, and comfort in your home. We specialise in installing secondary glazing for homeowners that need to keep their primary windows in place. Secondary glazing units are available in various styles and configurations to match your existing windows. They can be custom-designed to fit any window shape or size, ensuring a seamless integration with your property’s aesthetics.
“Secondary glazing is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to enhance their property’s energy efficiency, noise insulation, and security without compromising on aesthetics. By adding a discreet and effective layer of insulation, secondary glazing significantly reduces heat loss, leading to lower energy bills and a more comfortable indoor environment. It's particularly advantageous for heritage properties and listed buildings where preserving the original windows is essential. Additionally, secondary glazing provides an effective barrier against external noise and potential intruders, making it a practical and versatile solution for modern living.”
Preservation of existing windows
Secondary glazing is the ideal solution for homeowners that want to preserve the appearance and integrity of their original windows, particularly in heritage and listed buildings.
Energy Efficiency
Secondary glazing significantly reduces heat loss, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature and lowering your energy bills.
Noise Reduction
Whether you live in a busy urban area or a quiet suburban neighbourhood, secondary glazing provides an effective barrier against external noise, creating a quieter and more peaceful living environment.
Thermal Insulation
If draughty windows are a concern for your property, secondary glazing adds an extra layer of defence to guard your home against heat loss. The small gap between your existing window and the secondary unit effectively acts as an insulator, creating a separate layer of air between the two which can reduce heat loss by up to 65%.
Seamless Aesthetics
The sleek, modern design of our secondary glazing systems ensures that you’re able to enjoy all the acoustic, thermal and security benefits, without having to compromise on style.
Enhanced Security
Secondary glazing offers a unique, additional deterrent to any would-be intruders. Unlike traditional windows, secondary glazing is incredibly difficult to open from the outside and creates a further layer of defence against forced entry. Our frames are made from only the most durable, high quality aluminium and are securely fixed to resist forcing.
Condensation Control
When an additional layer of glass is added to your windows, this can help to minimise condensation on your primary windows, keeping your home healthier and reducing maintenance.
Cost-Effective Solution
Compared to full window replacement, secondary glazing can be a more affordable option. It provides many of the same benefits as double glazing at a proportion of the cost.
