There is no option of secondary glazing due to the fact that there is
a Juliet


I don't understand that. Secondary glazing goes *inside* the existing
windows.


Presumably it's because due to the Juliet thingy, the windows are
casement-type, opening inwards, so if the OP wants to ever open his
windows again, secondary glazing is out (I've only ever seen sliding or
fixed secondary glazing).
