Secondary glazing in Colindale

The housing in Colindale is largely 1930s semis, newer apartment blocks and the Grahame Park estate. In 1930s bays, secondary glazing can follow each facet of the bay or span across it, so we measure carefully around radiators, sills and curtain tracks.

In modern homes with sound double glazing, secondary glazing is mainly worthwhile for noise, particularly in bedrooms facing main roads, railways or flight paths. For flats where the lease or freeholder prevents changing external windows, secondary glazing fitted inside is usually the simplest way to reduce traffic noise and heat loss.

With the M1, the A5 Edgware Road and the Northern line all close by, traffic and train noise affect many homes, and acoustic glass helps. Barnet Council covers the area. Our Edmonton factory is about 9 miles away via the North Circular.

Secondary glazing is a discreet second window fitted on the inside of your existing windows, leaving the originals untouched. It suits listed buildings, conservation areas, flats where external windows cannot be changed, and anyone wanting to cut noise and draughts without replacing period windows.

• Keeps original windows in place
• Reduces draughts and outside noise
• Panels open or lift out for cleaning
