Security secondary glazing is a separate slim window fitted on the room side of an existing window, glazed with laminated glass so it forms a second barrier. It leaves the original window untouched outside, which makes it a common choice for listed buildings, conservation areas and period sash windows.

Fitting in Fulham and nearby

Fulham is about 4 miles from Central London, the main centre for Greater London. We can survey and fit across the SW6 district and in nearby places such as Chelsea and Putney.

Greater London has every kind of glazing, from Georgian sashes and Victorian bays in conservation areas to high-street shopfronts, office curtain walling and new-build flats.

This glazing suits:

Listed homes and buildings in conservation areas
Period sash windows with original glass
Offices in historic buildings
Ground-floor flats in converted townhouses

Questions we will ask at the survey

How it opens

Match the opening style to the original window so both can be opened, cleaned and used for ventilation.

Listed building consent

Internal secondary glazing is usually seen as reversible, but consent can still be needed. Check with the conservation officer first.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Windows needed for escape

Approved Document B expects many habitable rooms in houses, particularly upstairs, to have an escape window with a clear opening of at least 0.33 m², at least 450 mm high and 450 mm wide, with the bottom of the opening no more than 1,100 mm above the floor. Changing the glass does not alter that, but locks, secondary glazing and film must not stop the window opening. Laminated glass is hard to break through, so escape always relies on the window opening.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.

Security secondary glazing in Fulham: questions

Which areas near Fulham do you cover?

We can arrange work in Fulham and in nearby Chelsea (1 mile), Putney (2 miles) and Battersea (2 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Does secondary glazing reduce noise?

Yes, often noticeably, because of the air gap between the two panes. Laminated glass helps further.

Do I need permission for secondary glazing in a listed building?

It depends on the building and the council. Internal secondary glazing usually has less impact than replacement windows, but listed building consent may still be needed. Ask the conservation officer before ordering.

Will secondary glazing cause condensation?

A well-fitted unit usually reduces condensation on the inner pane. Some ventilation of the gap may be needed, which we discuss at the survey.
