Shoulderless safety hook, as described in our Guides.

Stainless steel, self colour. Sizes are approximate.

APPLICATION: Think "fall-safe". Use these to reduce the risk of a fall. Install two of these hooks beneath any panel that is not close to a sill or similar ledge. ALWAYS INSTALL SUFFICIENT HOOKS IF FOOT TRAFFIC IS BENEATH A PANEL. Do not hesitate to apply additional safety measures. Note for tall panels and especially panels that receive a lot of sunshine: if these panels come loose these may flop forward with a duck-under motion, so fit one or more hooks either side as the situation requires. Supplement with or exchange for curtain wires where prudent.

INSTALLATION: Fit with a small gap not exceeding 3mm to the panel edge. Prepare a pilot hole using a 2.5mm or 3mm drill bit, then fit the hook. Take great care - the drill must not touch the panel. Use a tiny dab of lubricant such as salt-free butter or spread. Do not exert the screw with much more than finger strength or the screw may break (stainless steel is not as tough as regular steel). When screwing into a window frame the short leg will rotate like a clock hand, therefore it needs a 15mm radial clearance.

IN USE: the short leg should sit over the panel edge with no more than a 3mm gap. A quarter turn (finger strength should be sufficient) will allow the panel to be removed.

Product : The product arrived on time, perfectly cut to size and finished, looks good and was easy to install. Cannot yet comment on its thermal insulation effectiveness since we are living through a U.K. heatwave. I will know in 8 months!

Great Quality

Service rating : The product was well built, simple and solid. Easy to fit in and out of place as we can see fit. Very happy to recommend.
Product : It has made such a difference to our summer room. We had been using a compact air conditioning unit to keep the temperature down in the summer, but had been needing to leave a window open for the hose (which in turn let warm air in). Nic managed to design build and fit a simple extra glaze solution that enables us to feed the pipe through the window and keep the room closed. Very happy with the product.

Great product and service

Service rating : Great customer service - no quibble when we receive a product with a defect. Service seems personal, human and so much better than a large company.
Product : Great product that has really helped us make our draughty old Victorian house much more energy efficient. There's an added bonus that we also hear much less noise from the road outside. They look great too - visitors are often amazed when we show them that they are there!

Fantastic, helpful company

Service rating : Great company. Easy to order, clear measuring guides, very well made. I always get a phone call when my order is ready, to arrange delivery.
Great, personal customer service, which is rare these days!
Product : These secondary glazing panels are perfect for my draughty little listed house. They are easy to use, look great (hardly noticeable) and are very effective at stopping the draughts.
I'm saving up so that each time I can afford another, I eliminate more draughts!
They aren't expensive for the quality, and always perfectly made and brilliantly packaged.

an excellent company to deal with

Service rating : Clare communication despite a re reschedule delivery and plenty of telephone advice before ordering.
Product : clear and concise installation instructions. The glazing panels were very well packed and arrived in pristine condition.
Following installation we have noticed a huge improvement in warmth and insulation, yet The secondary glazing is barely noticeable.
as these panels provide extra insulation for roof lights inside a sloped ceiling, extraglaze we’re able to supply wider magnetic strips for greater security.

This guide explores the nuances of each solution to help you decide which is best for your home.

A Price Guide for Secondary Glazing
