The apartment we are designing has original Crittal windows. The area is Knightsbridge, London, top floor. We have to be sympathetic to the conservation of the building. Most of the flats have secondary glazing which we do not like. Does anyone have an alternative to replacing the windows with double glazed units which will be a facsimile of the original or do we have to go back to Crittal?
you could buy double glazed units with Pilkington K glass with appropriate spacer bars to replace the secondary double glazing and the glass in the Crittal windows, thus keeping the original look and feel of the existing windows.
theres no need for secondary glazing which is also a fire hazard.
any reputable glazing firm (not double glazing) will be able to do this. Not a cheap option!
