GLRE specialises in secondary glazing, a solution that involves installing a fully independent window system inside existing windows or glazing without altering the original units. This method is particularly beneficial for commercial projects, including educational institutions, office blocks, and buildings in conservation areas, where maintaining the original window's appearance is crucial. Secondary glazing enhances thermal and acoustic insulation, improves building security, and is designed for easy removal during warmer months. With GLRE, clients receive a tailored, non-intrusive installation service that significantly boosts the performance of existing windows.
With over 25 years of experience, GLRE has developed a deep expertise in secondary glazing, offering customised glazing solutions that meet the specific needs of each project.

We focus on delivering Secondary Glazing services that stand out for their quality and reliability. Our process, from planning to execution, is designed to be seamless and efficient, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations.
Secondary glazing is chosen for various important reasons:
Enhanced Thermal Insulation: Creates an additional barrier against heat loss, reducing energy costs.
Acoustic Insulation: Significantly lowers noise levels for a more comfortable interior environment.
Conservation and Aesthetics: Ideal for listed buildings or those in conservation areas where altering the original windows is not permitted.
Improved Security: Offers an extra layer of security without compromising the window's original design.
Flexibility: Removable options allow for seasonal adjustments and easy access to the primary windows for cleaning.
Secondary glazing involves the addition of a new, separate glazing layer inside the existing window framework, enhancing the window's insulation and soundproofing capabilities without impacting the building's external appearance. This solution is particularly effective in improving the energy efficiency and acoustic performance of single-glazed windows in historic buildings, where preserving the original architecture is essential. GLRE's secondary glazing systems are custom-designed and manufactured in-house, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal performance. Our systems offer the thermal and acoustic benefits of double glazing, making them an excellent choice for upgrading the performance of existing windows.
