The benefits of double glazing are being drummed home by government into our local councils. Hundreds of thousands of pounds have already been spent upgrading windows and doors in council houses and in some cases councils are even being threatened with reduced budgets if their housing standards do not comply with government expectations.
Carbon emissions have now become priority to our UK government and the buck literally will be stopping in some cases. Wasteful Councils should prepare to be named and shamed under the new Carbon Trading Scheme. Among the plans to reduce emissions is double glazing; the insulation properties of double glazing can reduce energy use enormously. New windows and doors also provide better security for occupants, and reduce noise pollution.
Our government and local councils are striving to make a difference and double glazing is helping in that fight! Reduced energy consumption indoors due to improved insulation from your windows and doors is helping to conserve the environment. Keep up the good work folks!

Ok, so there’s frost on the ground, it’s dark at 4:30pm and there’s talk of more snow… You could be forgiven for not putting those new patio doors at the top of your priority list. In fact if you’re anything like me, you don’t so much as venture into the back garden between October and May, but trust me, come the odd day or two of British summertime, you’ll wish you’d planned ahead!
Picture it now; smart new double glazed patio doors leading directly onto your lawn. This year you’ll enjoy serene evenings with just the summer breeze and the sound of the dusk symphony from the song thrush. You can be looking out through your patio doors at the frosty mornings, the drizzled afternoons and the snowy winter evenings whilst enjoying all the extra heat that you may have been losing before choosing double glazing.
The rate this year is flying by, summer will be here before you know it… better get stuck in on the weeding then!

Make ‘saving money’ your New Years Resolution with these top tips on slashing your energy bills!
Don’t waste energy….keep the heat in; preserve your heat with double glazed windows and cavity wall insulation where possible. Thick or heavy curtains and draft excluders also make a huge difference and can reduce heat lost through windows and doors. According to Energywatch, by turning your thermostat down by just one degree centigrade could cut your heating bills by 10 per cent. Finally, simple things such as energy saving light bulbs, not using standby on your electrical items and turning off lights when you leave the room can also make a difference.
Look Online…..if you’re considering switching your supplier, new cheap utility deals are constantly being launched online and most of the cheapest tariffs on the market can only be taken advantage of by internet customers. Many new deals even offer cash-back.
Monitor your meter…..if you receive an estimated bill from your supplier; make sure you aren’t paying too much or too little! Where possible, give a meter reading to your supplier. This will avoid a large bill landing on the doormat or a large increase on your direct debit.
If your home isn’t already double glazed, be sure to look out for credit-crunching energy saving deals on windows and doors in the New Year!

It seems Christmas brings out the best and worst in us. Unfortunately while we are in the mood for giving and receiving, some people are in the mood for taking so be sure that your doors are fitted with decent locks. It pays to be security conscious at this time of year, all those presents under the tree can often prove just too tempting to the criminally minded.
Visiting family this Christmas? Remember an unoccupied home at this time of year is highly attractive to burglars. Think how you would get into your house if you were locked out? If you have any doubt about the security of your home it maybe time to consider new door locks. Ensure you have strong locks to your doors and windows and make sure you use the locks you have! Choose the right lock for the type of doors and windows in your home. With various door locking mechanisms to choose from, make sure you explain your requirements thoroughly when making enquiries.
Tip: When you’ve had new door locks fitted for additional security….don’t be a plonker and hide your new keys under the mat; this is the first place a burglar will look! Large ornamental objects surrounding the door like rocks, flower pots and door ledges are also a very obvious. If you must put a spare key outdoors, find a place away from the actual door!

Measuring up your own double glazed windows and doors couldn’t be simpler and by measuring yourself and ordering online, you could save time, money and inconvenience.
Cut out the middle man altogether - all you need is a regular tape measure. Be sure to measure the window or door 3 times, and take the smallest of the 3 for quoting purposes. Always measure in millimetres and be sure to take the width measurement from plaster to plaster and the height from plaster to cill.
Now you have your measurements, it’s time to find the best deals! Make sure you compare your quotes before deciding on a supplier; testimonials can also be a very useful tool in the decision process.
So you found a great deal online and your window or door has arrived safely. The final, most crucial stage is to source a reputable and reasonably priced professional to carry out the installation. Many online double glazing suppliers can either recommend a fitter or will carry out the work themselves.
All that is left now, is to decide how to spend the money that you saved by measuring up your double glazing yourself!
