Securing externally beaded double glazed windows
How can I secure externally beaded double glazed windows so the beading
can't be removed and the window removed by burglars. Thanks for all replies. |

In article , says... Superglue is the only option. Rubbish. Glazing tape works well. It can be retro-fitted but the point that Andrew makes about thickness is valid. Using tape will decrease the space available for the sealed unit and so it might be necessary to use new glazing beads as well. A friendly local window fabricator will supply and advise. Well, for a start the OP never advised whether he's talking about timber DG windows, which typically have wooden beading nailed around the outside - very easily removed by a tealeaf, and well-suited to the glazing tape solution - or uPVC stuff. If the latter, then the uPVC beading profile is highly dependent on the brand of the window, and if the local chappie doesn'ty do that brand the OP will be stuffed. I once had to try to source replacement uPVC beading for some relatively new Rehau windows but drew a total blank after the profile design had been changed. David |
