Double Glazing Scarborough

Scarborough Double Glazed Windows & Doors

Double Glazing Scarborough North Yorkshire (YO11): Double glazed windows can increase your home's energy efficiency, reduce noise levels and boost security. These windows are manufactured using two panes of glass with a gas filled medium, commonly argon, between them, hence the term 'double glazing'. This inert gas acts as an insulating material and provides effective thermal and sound proofing qualities for any home in Scarborough.

The time may have come to consider updating your windows, if you've already got older style double glazing in your home in Scarborough but have been having problems, like condensation between the panels or draughts.

Double Glazing Scarborough North Yorkshire (YO11)

When a small gap develops in the seal around the glass, warmer air from inside the property can enter the gap between the window panes and causes condensation. As the colder outside glass pane comes into contact with the heated air, moisture is formed as condensation. If this happens regularly it's time to replace your current windows.

If your Scarborough home has single glazed windows, upgrading to double glazed units will see an immediate improvement in the warmth and soundproofing. You may also boost your property's value (if you elect to sell), by upgrading to double glazed windows.

Hinged on one side, double glazed casement windows can be made to open outwards or inwards depending on the design. This enables easier cleaning and also gives a good amount of airflow during the summer. Tilt and turn casement windows can also be purchased for use where security is important. Tilt and turn double glazed windows have an extra hinge to be able to open a small amount. Enhanced security results, because to allow a fresh breeze to flow into the room, they can be locked firmly into position when only partially open.

Double glazing sash windows with a traditional look can be purchased to match older and period homes in Scarborough. These can be double hung, where both of the sashes can be opened, or single hung, where just one pane moves. The sash windows of the past were renowned for their poor standard of energy efficiency, but this problem has for the most part been reduced with modern day double glazing models, and in relation to thermal loss, there's hardly any difference between sash and casement windows today.

An alternative might be a bay window, which looks great and helps to bring a feeling of space to even the most modest of rooms. If your property in Scarborough has already got a bay window, it can fairly easily be replaced with an equivalent double glazed frame. Bay windows bring a lot of character and style to a home, but the main advantage is the quantity of light that they allow to flood into a room. An additional plus point is being able to install a window seat, if the sill is deep enough on the inside of the window.

Modern day double glazing window frames can be manufactured in virtually any colour with the use of uPVC materials. It's also possible to have wooden frames for a traditional look, or aluminium frames for a somewhat more contemporary feel. Aluminium windows no longer have to be a dull, grey and bland looking frame for your double glazing, and can readily be coloured to blend in with your property.

You must be able to spot the CE mark displayed on any modern double glazed windows that are fitted in Scarborough homes. This mark should be visible on the inside of the sealed glass unit and on the frame, and is proof of the standard of both the frame and the glass. For all doors and windows made in the United Kingdom and within Europe, the CE logo is a legal requirement. Make sure your double glazing specialist in Scarborough is using CE approved materials for manufacturing it's doors and windows, otherwise they may be made to less stringent standards and with substandard materials and components. While they might be good enough for certain uses, it's better to demand only using double glazed frames that come with CE approval and are backed by a warranty.

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 can be a great way to give your cat the freedom to come and go as they wish, without you having to continually open and shut the door for them.

However, it is worth noting that installing a cat flap in double glazing is not a task that can be done by yourself. This is a complex procedure that requires specialised equipment and tools. It is best to hire a specialist cat flap fitter if you're not experienced in this type of work.

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, 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.

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

The cat flap fitter will order a new double glazing unit with a pre-cut hole for the cat flap, ensuring the cat flap's proper installation and maintaining the unit's integrity.

Once the new double glazing unit has been delivered, the cat flap fitter will come back to your home in Scarborough to install it. This process will involve removing the old double glazing unit and replacing it with the new one. The cat flap fitter will then install the cat flap in the hole that has been cut out of the double glazing unit.

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