Followed this guide and worked perfectly. Saved me over £100 for a single window!

Informative video! I replaced the gasket seals when putting my new glazing units in. Changed from flipper profile gasket to bubble type. None of the glazing I took out had been toe and healed properly. The frames I have, the glazing recess has a 4mm deep channel on the outer side so needs 4mm packers in the channel for the 5mm packers to sit squarely on. The packers should be the same depth as the glazing unit, in my case 28mm.

For anyone wanting an explanation of toe and healing glazing units, type 'toe and healed glazing' into google.

Brilliant video. Thanks so much. I've got a misted pane and had some ridiculous quotes to have it replaced. I'm going to remove the beads and measure the existing pane and get a replacement cut and then hopefully fit it myself ensuring it's packed properly as you showed. Thanks again

This is a great video on how to do this type of work, I feel confidence in your tutorial. You sure make it look so easy and I like your honest and friendly bit at the end by offering to fix the other window free. Thankyou for taking the time to show us all. 🙏

[madnessinmotion]

It all makes sense now. This is a great and easy tutorial, thanks for that. I'm going to try this myself so wish me luck 😂

Thank you. Having watched numerous videos before I start tackling this job myself, yours is definitely the best one I have seen. I particularly learned something new in relation to the use of packers. I now feel confident in doing it myself.

Thanks very much, best video of how to change double-glazed windows in UPVC frames and where to place the spacers. My window was about 1mm wider than the previous one, so was a very tight fit, had to use a small block of wood and bash the beading in with a mallet (you have to place the block along the narrow inside edge of the beading and hit it straight inwards to get it to clip in, just be careful not to hit the glass).

I fixed my window witch was moved on one side and exposing my conservatory to the wind . Thank you for your video 👍😁🙏

Excellent Video - Just fitting several windows and suffered a blown glass, keep up these simple to follow video's, as I hate the American one's as they talk to much (less is always more)

[riteshsolanki]

The detail in this video, absolutely brilliant. Thank you for sharing. Liked and subscribed

Fixed my sagged opener which was binding and hardly closing. The packers were on the incorrect corners, I just swapped them over a d job done. Thank you!

"Glass does not like hammers." Excellent! Thank you.

Very helpful. Clear and concise instructions ❤

Good video. I didn't know about the glaze sitting on the base and using the packers like that. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏽

What a brilliant straightforward video, thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge! we’re starting the replacement of 18 panes tomorrow & I now feel confident we can manage it. We’ve been told we should drill drain holes in the frame once the glass is removed but I’m wondering if this is true now I’ve watched this, can I ask your opinion please & also will do we re-use existing packers or replace?
