Secondary Glazing for listed and period properties

Granada Secondary Glazing Windows
Secondary Glazing for Listed Buildings and Period Properties

Our range of secondary glazing (a secondary window that fits inside the current window frame) is designed to be sleek and as unobtrusive as possible and hence will not impact the external aesthetics of a property.

What is Secondary Glazing?

Secondary glazing features the installation of a slimline, discreet aluminium panel fixed either within the reveal, or to the face, of your existing window. Effective secondary glazing should be barely visible to the naked eye, whilst bolstering both the thermal and acoustic performance of your primary window. An independent unit that operates separately from your existing window, secondary glazing is an ideal solution for properties where window replacement is not an option.

Benefits of Secondary Glazing:

Noise Reduction: From a sound insulation perspective, secondary glazing offers the most effective levels of noise reduction in today’s market, significantly outperforming all other glass solutions. Secondary glazing supplied by Glevum is manufactured using state-of-the-art machinery to lock in a tightly sealed frame. Reduce noise levels by up to a whopping 80% (50dB).

Energy Efficiency: Secondary glazing adds an extra layer of defence to guard homes against heat loss. The small gap between the existing window and the secondary unit effectively acts as an insulator, creating a separate layer of air between the two. Reduce heat loss by up to 65%.

Enhanced Security: Secondary glazing offers a unique, additional deterrent to any would-be intruders. Secondary glazing is incredibly difficult to open from the outside and creates a further layer of defence against forced entry. The frames are made from only the most durable, high-quality aluminium and are securely fixed to resist forcing.

Condensation Control: Secondary glazing control condensation, as it provides a complete internal seal which balances ventilation within the window reveal cavities. This prevents the inner glass from becoming too cold, thus helping tackle the problem of condensation.

Seamless Aesthetics: The sleek, modern design of Glevum supplied secondary glazing ensures acoustic, thermal and security benefits, without compromising on style.

Glevum Windows and doors are of excellent quality and the fitters, Matt and Dean were both quick, efficient and tidy workers. We found them both friendly and polite. We would not hesitate to recommend the Company and the service they provided.

N Harris (Pershore)

A very personal service; I felt valued as a customer and they listened to what I wanted. Excellent quality of product and service. I decided not to go with a larger well-known brand as they did not provide the same personal service in the quotation stage.

J. Miller (Symonds Yat)

Excellent everyone was professional and yet friendly. I felt all were giving me good service and I felt a valued customer.

D. Morse (Lydney)

Always helpful and courteous whichever department one is speaking with.

Fitters are skilled and careful. Products are not the cheapest on the market but they are of the best quality and extremely good value for money.

R. Savage (Worcester)

Excellent service from start to finish, we had secondary Glazing fitted into our dental practice. Glevum attended when they said they would, completed the job with minimum disturbance to the daily running of the practice, and left their work place clean and tidy. The glazing has made such a difference, staff are much warmer and the radiators have been turned to low.

H. Pugh (Gloucester)

Glevum were prompt in quoting for the work. The order was placed and doors and windows far more quickly than other companies were able. The fitting was completed to a high standard. I'm very happy with the work and product!!

K. Smit (Bristol)

So happy with installation, can really feel the difference in room temperature. Fitters were excellent, very pleasant and left everywhere clean and tidy. Very professional job. Would certainly recommend. Thankyou Glevum.
