Traditional Single Glazing
Authentic Restoration for Period & Listed Buildings
For many heritage projects, maintaining the original architectural integrity is the primary concern. Our single glazing options are specifically designed for restoration work where modern double-glazed units may not be permitted or appropriate.
Single glazing at Highgate Joinery comprises a single piece of high-quality glass, precision-fitted to the rebate. To ensure the most authentic finish, we offer traditional putty finishing to match the original craftsmanship of your building, or beaded options for a more contemporary timber finish.
Why Choose Single Glazing?
-
Conservation Approval: The preferred choice for many Grade I and Grade II Listed buildings.
-
Period Accuracy: Matches the slim profiles and weight requirements of historical sash and casement windows.
-
Bespoke Finishing: Available with traditional hand-applied putty or timber beading to suit your project’s requirements.
