Double glazed units
Double Glazed Units can be processed in different types of glass such as Planitherm, Low E, Active (self cleaning), Solar control. The double glazed Units can be made up in all sorts of sizes to include arched units.
The units can also be made up with leaded design if required and can come with clear, obscure or toughened glass. Also with a choice of spacer bars in between the panes of glass.
Spacer bars sizes came in the following range:- 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm and 20mm Therefore a standard unit size with a 20mm spacer would read 4/20/4 this would be a 28mm unit.

We can also offer Triple Glazed Units
These can be made in the same specs as above but with 3 panes of glass with a spacer bar between each.
