Ellon Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Ellon Scotland (AB41): Installing double glazing can help to improve security, reduce noise levels and increase the energy efficiency of your home in Ellon. Double glazing describes the method of making the window using a double layer of glass with a gas filled medium, commonly argon, between them. As it behaves like an insulating material, this inert gas provides a home or property with outstanding thermal and sound proofing qualities.

If you already have older style double glazing in your house in Ellon but are faced with issues, like draughts or condensation between the glass panes, the time might have come to consider upgrading your windows.

Double Glazing Ellon Scotland (AB41)

Condensation happens when a small gap appears in the sealed unit, and warmer air from inside the house enters into the space between the window panes. As the colder exterior pane of glass makes contact with the heated air, moisture is formed as condensation. If this is happening frequently, particularly during the wintertime, you could either have the sealed unit replaced, or get brand new double glazing.

Changing to double glazed units will result in an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing, if your home in Ellon currently has single glazing. Making the upgrade to double glazing could also help to raise your property's value should you choose to sell.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

Double glazing casement windows have hinges on one side and can open outwards or inwards. This enables easier cleaning and also gives ample airflow during the summer. Casement windows can also come in a tilt and turn window for more security. Tilt and turn double glazed windows have a supplementary hinge to be able to open slightly. Increased security is the result, because to allow a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked firmly into position when partly open.

To complement a period home in Ellon, there are also options for double glazing sash windows with a more traditional look. These are made in both single hung and double hung styles, where either one or both panes can be slid open. The sash windows of the past were known for their poor standard of energy efficiency, however this problem has for the most part been lessened with modern double glazed designs, and in relation to thermal loss, there's very little difference between sash and casement windows today.

Helping to bring a sense of space to a room, bay windows look amazing. If you have an existing bay window it's possible to swap it for a double glazed equivalent to maintain the style. The good thing about a bay window is the quantity of light it allows into a room, and if you have a deep sill on the interior side, it is the ideal place to fit a window seat.

Double Glazing Quotes in Ellon Scotland

Modern double glazing window frames can be manufactured in almost any colour through the use of uPVC materials. It is also possible to have wooden frames for a traditional feel, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more contemporary look. Readily coloured to suit your property, aluminium frames no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland like they used to be.

All double glazing installed in Ellon today must come with a CE approval mark. This mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and proves the standard of both the frame and the glass. For all doors and windows made in Great Britain and the EU, the CE logo is a necessary requirement. If your Ellon double glazing specialist doesn't use CE approved materials they could perhaps be made using less stringent production standards and low quality materials. It's always best to insist that the company only uses products that come with a CE approval and are backed by a guarantee or warranty.

Installing Cat Flaps in Double Glazing

If you own a cat, you have possibly considered fitting a cat flap to your double glazing. This can be a wonderful way to give your cat the freedom to enter and exit the house as they please, without you having to continuously open and close the door for them.

It is important to note that installing a cat flap in double glazing isn't a DIY job, and that a professional should be hired to carry out the work. Specialised tools and equipment are required for this complex process. If you do not have experience in this kind of work, it is best to hire a specialist 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 pick 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 microchip reader to allow only your cat to enter your property.

Once you have chosen a cat flap, you need to contact a specialist cat flap installer. They'll come to your home to assess the situation and to measure the space where the cat flap will be installed. They'll also be able to advise you on the best kind of cat flap for your needs.

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

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

The device fitter will test the device to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its settings and usage. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
