Acoustic glazing in Cockfosters

Homes in Cockfosters are mostly 1930s semis, detached houses and purpose-built flats. 1930s homes on main arterial roads benefit most from acoustic units in the front bays, along with good seals, because gaps let sound in as easily as thin glass.

On detached homes, target the elevations facing the noise source, such as a road or railway, rather than paying for acoustic glass in every window. In flats above shops or near transport, combine acoustic glazing with well-sealed frames and acoustic trickle vents, since ventilation gaps can undo much of the glass's benefit.

That is why bifold and sliding doors are popular requests, often alongside a full set of replacement windows and a new composite front door. We make all of these in Edmonton, about 5.5 miles away. The person who measures your home works with the team who builds and fits it, so nothing gets lost in between.

Acoustic glazing uses laminated glass with a sound-damping interlayer, often combined with panes of different thicknesses, to reduce noise coming through your windows. It suits homes and businesses near busy roads, railways, flight paths, schools and nightlife, where outside noise affects sleep, work or everyday comfort.

• Noticeably quieter rooms near busy roads
• Laminated glass adds safety and security
• Works alongside double or secondary glazing
