Double Glazing Hook

Double Glazing Hook Hampshire (RG27): You can reduce noise, enhance your home's energy efficiency and boost security through the installation of double glazing. Double glazing refers to the method of making the window using two panes of glass with a gas filled medium, normally argon, between them. Acting as insulation, this gas delivers outstanding thermal and sound proofing qualities for any home.

It may be time to think about upgrading your windows, if you have already got older double glazing in your property in Hook but have been experiencing problems, like condensation between the glass panes or draughts.

Immediate improvements in the warmth and soundproofing will be noticed if your home in Hook currently has single glazed windows and you switch to double glazed windows. The upgrade to double glazing can also help to improve the value of your home should you opt to sell.

DOUBLE GLAZING WINDOW MATERIALS AND STYLES

By hiring a specialist double glazing installer in Hook, you'll be able find windows that both match your choice of style and complement your house perfectly. From modern casement windows and patio doors to traditional sash windows for older houses, double glazed frames can be bought in a wide array of materials, colours and sizes.

Having hinges on one side only, double glazed casement windows can be made to open inwards or outwards depending on the design. This provides plenty of airflow in the warmer summer months and enables easier cleaning. Casement windows can also be arranged into a tilt and turn window for additional security. Tilt and turn windows have a supplementary hinge to be able to open slightly. Improved security is the result, because to allow a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked in place when partly open.

Double glazing sash windows with a traditional appearance are available to match older or period properties in Hook. There are single hung models where just one sash slides, and double hung versions, where both of the panes slide. Sash windows weren't recognised for being energy efficient in times past, but nowadays there is practically nothing between the thermal losses of casement and sash windows, as modern day double glazing models have alleviated this issue.

Helping to bring a sense of space to a room, bay windows look great. If you've got an existing bay window it is feasible to replace it with an equivalent double glazed frame to maintain the style. The huge amount of light that it lets into a room, is the good thing about a bay window, and it makes for a perfect place to fit a window seat if you've got a deep sill on the inside.

Today's double glazed units can be manufactured in virtually any colour with the use of uPVC materials. It's also possible to have wooden frames for a classic look, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more contemporary feel. Readily coloured to blend in with your home, aluminium windows no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland as they were in the past.

All new double glazed windows should come with a CE approval mark. This verifies the standard of the glass and of the frame and the CE mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass panel and on the frame. For all windows and doors manufactured in the United Kingdom and the EU, the CE logo is a necessary requirement. If CE approved materials are not used by your Hook double glazing company, they could be using substandard components and made using less stringent specifications. It's always better to insist that the company only uses products that come with a CE approval and are backed up with 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 is a great way to let your cat come and go as they please, without you having to keep opening and closing the door for them.

Installing a cat flap in double glazing is not a do-it-yourself job, so it is important to keep this in mind. It is a complex procedure that requires specialist equipment and tools. 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 choose one that is the best fit for your needs. Some features you may want to consider include a lock or a microchip reader. For example, you may want a cat flap with a lock to prevent other animals from entering your house.

Once you've chosen a cat flap, it is advisable to contact a specialist cat flap fitter. They will visit your home to assess the situation and measure the space for the cat flap installation. They can also advise you on the best style 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 fitter will order a new unit with a pre-cut hole for the cat flap.

Upon delivery of the new double glazing unit, the cat flap installer will return to your home in Hook to install it. This process entails removing the old double glazing unit and replacing it with the new one. The cat flap installer then installs the cat flap in the hole cut into the double glazing unit.

The flap installer will test the cat flap to ensure its proper functioning and demonstrate its settings and usage, providing you with the knowledge and confidence to operate the cat flap independently. (13805 - Cat Flaps in Double Glazing)
