Double Glazing Bracknell

Double Glazing Bracknell Berkshire (RG12): Putting double glazing into your home in Bracknell, will help reduce noise, improve security and enhance your home's energy efficiency. The expression double glazing actually refers to the method of making these windows using twin panes of glass, with a gas filled layer between them (generally argon). Because it acts like insulation, this inert gas provides a home with effective thermal and sound proofing qualities.

The time might have come to think about updating your windows, if you have already got older double glazing in your home in Bracknell but have been experiencing issues, like draughts or condensation between the panes.

If your Bracknell home currently has single glazing, changing to double glazed windows will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing. The upgrade to double glazed windows can also help to improve the value of your property if you elect to sell.

DOUBLE GLAZED WINDOW STYLES AND MATERIALS

To find windows that satisfy your choice of style and match your home, you should use a professional double glazing installer in the Bracknell area. Whether you're searching for traditional sash windows for an older property in Bracknell, or modern casement windows and patio doors, double glazed frames can be found in an array of colours, sizes and materials to fit your needs.

Double glazed casement windows are hinged to one side and can be made to open inwards or outwards. This gives plenty of airflow in the summer and enables easier cleaning. They're also available in a tilt and turn set up which adds an additional level of security where essential. Permitting them to be opened slightly, tilt and turn double glazed windows have a supplementary hinge. Enhanced security is the result, because to allow a cool breeze to enter the room, they can be locked firmly in position when only partly open.

For that classic look to complement a period home in Bracknell, there are double glazing sash windows on offer. There are double hung designs where both of the panes can be moved, and single hung versions where just one pane slides. Sash windows weren't noted for their energy efficiency in times past, but these days there is practically nothing between the thermal losses of sash and casement windows, as modern day double glazing models have reduced this issue.

Bay windows look awesome and can bring a sense of space to a room. If your home in Bracknell has already got a bay window, you could replace it with an equivalent double glazed unit. Bay windows bring a lot of style and character to a home, but the main benefit is the amount of light that they let into a room. An additional plus point is having the opportunity to install a window seat, if a deep sill exists on the interior side of the window.

Due to the development uPVC materials, pretty much any colour is possible in today's double glazing window frames. It's also possible to have timber frames for a classic feel, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more contemporary look. Easily coloured to suit your home, aluminium windows no longer have to be a grey, dull and bland like they used to be.

All double glazed windows fitted today should come with a CE approval mark. This mark is proof of the standard of both the frame and the glass, and should be plainly visible on the frame and inside the sealed glass panel. The CE logo is a requirement for all windows and doors made in Great Britain and the EU. If your Bracknell double glazing specialist does not use CE approved materials they could be manufactured using less stringent production standards and inferior materials. It is best to always demand only using products that come with a CE approval and are backed up with a guarantee.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

You may have pondered installing a cat flap in your double glazing, if you have a feline companion. This is a great way to let your cat come and go as they please, without you having to keep opening and closing the door repeatedly.

It is important to note, however, that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a DIY job. This is a complex process that requires specialised equipment and tools. If you aren't experienced in this kind of work, it is best to hire a professional cat flap fitter.

How to install a cat flap in double glazing:

The first step is to choose a cat flap that is the right size for your cat and has the features you need. There are a variety of cat flaps available on the market, so you can choose one that is the best fit for your needs. Some features you may want to consider include a microchip reader or a lock. For example, you may want a cat flap with a lock to prevent other animals from entering your property.

Once you've chosen a cat flap, a specialist cat flap fitter should be contacted. They'll visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap. They can also advise you on the best kind of cat flap for your needs, taking into account your specific requirements.

To preserve the double glazing unit's integrity and ensure the cat flap's proper installation, the cat flap installer will order a new double-glazed unit with a hole cut out for the cat flap.

The cat flap specialist will return to your home in Bracknell to install the new double-glazed unit once it has been delivered. This involves removing the old double-glazed unit and installing the new one. The cat flap installer then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double glazing unit, ensuring that the integrity of the unit is not compromised and that the cat flap is installed correctly.

Finally, the cat flap installer will test the cat flap to make certain that it is working properly. They will also show you how to use the device and how to adjust the settings. (47902 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
