Why Fit Secondary Glazing?
Secondary Glazing Window Benefits
Homeowners opt for secondary glazed windows due to their inherent benefits, namely quietness, warmth, and security. These three essential features serve as the foundation of our distinctive secondary glazing system, and as a result, an increasing number of homeowners are embracing the advantages of secondary glazing.
Noise Reduction
Secondary glazing offers the most effective levels of noise reduction on today’s market, significantly outperforming all other glass solutions. Our bespoke secondary glazing is manufactured using state-of-the-art machinery to lock-in a tightly sealed frame, reducing noise levels by up to a whopping 80%.
Enhanced Security
Given the high priority of security, secondary glazing presents a unique and additional deterrent against potential intruders. It is incredibly difficult to open from the outside, creating an extra layer of defense against forced entry. Our frames, made from durable, high-quality aluminum, are securely fixed to resist any attempts of forcing.
Thermal Insulation
If draughty windows are of bigger concern for your property, secondary glazing adds an extra layer of defence to guard your home against heat loss. The small gap between your existing window and the secondary unit effectively acts as an insulator, creating a separate layer of air between the two which can reduce heat loss by up to 65%.
Seamless Aesthetics
The sleek, modern design of our secondary glazing systems ensures that you’re able to enjoy all the acoustic, thermal and security benefits, without having to compromise on style.

Our Products - Purpose-built to suit all property and window types
Our secondary glazing product range comes in six different variations.
Our horizontal sliding units are versatile and suitable for a range of windows, including casement and fixed types. They open from side to side, feature a slim design, and provide easy access for cleaning and ventilation. These units are particularly well-suited for windows with vertical bars.
Our hinged secondary glazing windows, free of transoms or mullions, offer an unobtrusive view. They open like doors and can be equipped with either a multi-point locking system or butt hinges. These units are a perfect match for casement, patio, and large sash windows.
Similar to our fixed units in concept and design, our lift-out secondary glazing offers easy frame removal. This feature allows for increased airflow and improved access for cleaning, making them an excellent choice for windows that require only occasional access.
Regardless of your existing window’s shape or size, we can manufacture custom secondary units tailored to your requirements. There are virtually no limits to the designs and styles we can create, making them an ideal match for any curved or non-standard shaped windows.
Our vertical sliding units open from top to bottom and can include a special slide pass or tilt-in function. This enables each panel to pivot inwards individually, allowing for easy access and cleaning. These units are an ideal choice for sash windows.
Our fixed units stand as independent windows, permanently fitted on the inside of existing doors or windows. They are the perfect choice for rooms with limited space.
Classic or Enhanced Secondary Glazing Window Options
At Secondary Glazing Derby, we proudly present six distinctive product types, all of which are offered in either our Classic or Enhanced range.

Everything you’ve come to expect from Granada products, but with ultra-strong aluminium frames that support up to 10.8mm glass for enhanced noise reduction and thermal insulation. This improvement in performance comes at no expense of style though, as our enhanced frames are super-sleek for superior, unobtrusive aesthetics.
