Triple glazing in Hornsey

Homes in Hornsey are mostly bay-fronted Victorian and Edwardian terraces, flat conversions and some newer blocks. On Victorian terraces, triple glazing is best paired with wall and loft insulation improvements, since windows alone will not solve heat loss through solid brick walls.

In flats near main roads or railways, triple glazing can help with comfort and noise, though acoustic laminated double glazing is sometimes more effective for sound alone. For commercial buildings, weigh triple glazing against heating costs, occupancy and frame suitability, as its extra weight and cost suit some projects better than others.

The East Coast Main Line runs past Hornsey station and the big train depot, so homes nearby can be noisy. Acoustic glazing, which uses two different thicknesses of glass, reduces that. Hornsey is about 3.5 miles from our Edmonton factory, and we always check freeholder consent for flats before fitting.

Triple glazing adds a third pane of glass and a second sealed gap, improving insulation and comfort beyond standard double glazing. It suits homeowners aiming for very high energy efficiency, people living near busy roads, and homes undergoing deep retrofits where walls, roofs and windows are all being upgraded together.

• Higher insulation than double glazing
• Extra layer helps reduce outside noise
• Suits low-energy and retrofit projects
