      Why would you post a video using the wrong tools for the job? Just inviting abuse really and more to the point encouraging clueless people to have a go and then damage the beads and or break the unit. Baffling

    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).

    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.

    Excellent. Loads of thanks, i will definitely try this. Can i ask: how do you know which packers you need + where can i get them from? Also, do i need to put sealant on the insides of the beads (either the external ones, internal ones, or both) to stop cold air + water getting in? Or do i not need to add sealant at all?

      I found these packers on Amazon, price is not bad at all.
      amzn.to/3TX0olg
      You shouldn't use sealant at all, water is allowed to pass the gasket. That's the reason why glass shouldn't sit on the bottom but instead be raised off with the packers. Just make sure that packers are supporting both panes of glass( inner and outer) also to allow water to pass under the glass and get discharged through weep holes.
      All the best 👍🙂

    • @mrfxr1695
      @mrfxr1695  ปีที่แล้ว

      Externally beaded windows will usually have narrow double sided(sticky tape) gasket to prevent thieves from popping glass out. You can buy double sided sticky foam and replace it out use a bead of clear silicone, if tape is not damaged.

    • @mrfxr1695

      Thanks, the glass can only fall to the side where removable glazing beads are. Most modern windows have beads on inside, some older ones have beads outside( they can be a pain sometimes) just be ready to catch the glass when removing last glazing bead

    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? Tia.

    • @mrfxr1695
      @mrfxr1695  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Once glass is out, check for functionality of existing drainage holes. Yes, you're might need to drill new ones if old ones are obsolete.
      And yes, you can reuse existing packers for sure,.
      Make sure you pack the glass off the bottom to assist drainage and prevent glass from blowing again.

      About 5-6mm (blue or red packer )all the way around. 10-12 mm total in width and hight. For the thickness, pop the bead in, tension it and measure the thickness. Most modern uPVC 's come in 24 or 28mm thickness, but it's not excluded to be different to that

    • @mrfxr1695
      @mrfxr1695  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, older versions of the uPVC windows are glazed from out side. They have glazing beads on outside and in general would have compression gasket on inside. They are a bit more trickier to do, compression gasket has to be carefully pulled out first, glass pane pushed away from glazing beads in order to remove glazing beads.
      If you have this kind of window and you've never done then before I would suggest to get personal help. You don't want to get stuck half way with broken bead or gasket

      Hi, you can get glass made to measure in any glazing shop. Please note that glass on doors, windows directly connected to doors and window panes below 800mm from the floor have to be safety glass, most commonly toughened. You'll have to specify that when ordering.

      Replacement glass you can order from your local glazing shop. Glass panes are usually between £20-40.
      Major saving is if you measure and replace the glass yourself. You can always ask your local glazing shop for complete service but expect to be charged for measuring and installation as well.

      Good point. You could, but you would have to have expensive equipment for it. It is because there are two sheets of glass stuck together with hot butylene mastic (that's expensive part). You can't use silicone. Also, there is aluminium spacer bar all the way around perimeter and it's filled with silica to absorb moisture. That would have to be replaced as well.
      In short lines, it is cheaper to get few new units

    In my experience the units fail on south facing units due to the thermal expansion from repeated heating and cooling - I replaced every unit on my 10-year old house with high performance DG units with a u-value of 1.4 (old ones were probably >3) - all the packing was in there but only the south-facing ones had failed. I also found it was almost impossible to remove the inner beads without first removing the outer seals first. Your windows don't look that well made - the inner beading has not even been mitred at the corners - probably explains the lack of packing inside 😬

      Sun exposed glazing fails sooner than protected glazing due to thermal movement, absolutely correct.
      Incorrect packing will accelerate failure rate. If you have to remove gasket before beading, your windows are fitted with compression gaskets. Some older uPVC windows in the UK are like that. Also, many aluminium windows are like that due to aluminium being less flexible than uPVC. Beating didn't have to be mitered in corners, it can be scribed as on the window in the video
      All the best 👍🙂

    • @mrfxr1695
      @mrfxr1695  ปีที่แล้ว

      Does your window have external beads? If so, most likely will have compression gasket internally that has to be pulled out(carefully) and then external beads can be removed. For refit, place the beads back in, push the glass right against beads and refit compression gasket.
      If they are internal glazing beads, try to pray them off in the middle of the bead, away from the corner

    sorry but your lucky you didnt crack the unit, it is vital the packers are the correct width for the unit ,they have to support both inside and outside pains of glass, if you only support the outside pain you run the risk of whats called lipping the unit and causing it to crack. the way you positioned the packers would cause lipping.

    • @mrfxr1695
      @mrfxr1695  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My concern is for the people trying to copie, you don't mention to support all of the unit, also you pushed the packer right up to the plastic under the gasket,schoolboy error. To do the job correctly you need bridging packers specific to the profile. If you use non specific packers you should always place them at an angle

    It looks like the installer knew what they were doing wrong when putting the blue packers at the top. Maybe on site they put the windows in upside down... or they did it on purpose to ensure the customer returns... Eitherway, rubbish job and the client is lucky you worked it out.
