Frequently Asked Questions

Home-owners: existing steel windows

Can I re-glaze my single-glazed Crittall windows with double glass sealed units?

Unfortunately not.  When fitting a sealed unit into a window frame there must be a certain amount of frame coverage over the glass edge.  The older, single-glazed frame glazing rebate is not deep enough to allow this coverage.  Any window re-glazed with a sealed unit will quickly break down due to weather penetration.

New Homelight Crittall frames supplied for double-glazing have an increased glazing rebate, allowing use of sealed units up to 24mm.
