I need to replace a broken window and it would seem sensible to
replace the glass with a double glazed sealed unit. The last extension
to our house already has sealed units in similar (if not identical)
wooden frames.

The glass is retained by glazing bars and there's lots of spare depth,
it could accomodate a 1cm thick unit quite happily.

Where can one buy 'one off' made to measure sealed units? (if it
works well and is easy to do I might well replace some more) I'm in
South Suffolk if that's at all relevant.




It's very easy to get replacement DG units ... look under glazing in Yellow
Pages ... In may area a company called "Glass Systems" make units at about
25% of the cost of going to a window/glazing company.
They will make to your size ... and within reason to whatever thickness DG
you want.

I see no reason to involve building control ...just get on with it, if your
window is down to floor level then it will have to be safety glass.
