Secondary glazing is a discreet internal window that is installed in the interior of a building. It is often installed within domestic and commercial properties as it offers enhanced acoustic and thermal insulation while providing added security. Historic England prefers the addition of secondary glazing for listed buildings or buildings situated within conservation areas. Once installed, secondary glazing will have a substantial impact on thermal and acoustic insulation. It is often installed in conjunction with single glazing. Still, it has grown in popularity for modern properties with double and triple glazing as it is particularly effective at blocking noise entering your home or commercial building.
Arctic Glaze’s secondary glazing range is manufactured from durable aluminium and can be powder coated in over 200 RAL colours. Their aluminium frames are slimline and highly durable. They can hold different specifications of glass that allow it to enhance acoustic and thermal performance. Secondary glazing is available in a range of styles and will complement casement windows, timber box sash windows, aluminium windows and critall windows.
The installation of secondary glazing will substantially increase acoustic and thermal insulation, it can prevent draughts and help reduce heat loss. A reduction in heat loss will lower energy bills while making rooms feel notable warmer. Properties that are located near busy roads, train lines or under flight paths are subject to large amounts of noise. Correctly installed and specified, secondary glazing can help lock out the noise by reducing noise levels by as much as 80% – the equivalent of 54 decibels.
If home security is a concern, secondary glazing acts as a second barrier and can help prevent forced entry. Our range of secondary glazing is extremely difficult to open from the exterior of the building. Internal locking mechanisms can be installed where our hinged unit range features multi-point locking, enhancing security whilst providing both thermal and acoustic performance. Secondary glazing can be manufactured to large sizes, meaning it isn’t just for windows. We have solutions that can be installed with French timber doors or large sliding patio doors.
For properties prohibited from changing their primary windows, secondary glazing is the perfect solution to enhance acoustic performance and reduce heat loss. It is slimline, meaning it is barely visible from the exterior of the building, and the modern design and colour range can match all room aesthetics.
