Unbalanced Vertical Slider Aluminium Secondary Glazing
The Unbalanced Vertical Slider, which is also known as the "guillotine", has been designed to compliment your existing sash windows. These unbalanced units are our most affordable vertically sliding secondary glazing and like our other styles of secondary glazing will reduce noise and cut heat loss. They are easy to fit and are very affordable and being made from slim and strong aluminium, will blend in with your existing windows and provide many years of service.
Our Unbalanced Vertical Slider is made from slim and strong aluminium. To make these vertical sliders as affordable as possible they are not fitted with balances. Being unbalanced the operator must support the weight of the panel when sliding. The panels may be latched open at several positions and they may be removed for easy cleaning. Available in a variety of colours and subframe types they will effortlessly blend with your existing windows. Any chosen glass will reduce noise and heat loss, however we offer a range of glass types which will further reduce noise (acoustic "stadip" glass) and reduce heat loss (Pilkington "K" glass)
