Duddddeeeeeeeeeee I can’t freaking thank you enough!!!! Our kids were playing darts and busted one of the windows on our old double paned window and of course being Mama I lost my ever loving mind!!! Now I can do it myself and not be mad anymore.
I’m glad I was able to help you not be mad at your kids anymore lol
Thank you Brother for this very helpful video. It gave me the knowledge & confidence to repair a single pane sliding window where the side frame (attached handle) bowed & came off from the glass. Had I not watched this video I wouldn't have the courage to unscrew the loose frame, straighten frame, reset the gasket, tap back the frame into position & screw it back at both ends. It was a great feeling after making it right. TH-camrs like you are helping a lot of people like me hoping to fix things ourselves. God bless!
I’m glad I was able to help!
Bro this is one of those videos where the a-ha moment comes within the first 30 seconds.. lol same as when I couldn’t figure out wall-mounted AC’s 😂🤣thank you so much!
Glad I was able to help!
Great now I know. You made it look easy.my top window shash bottom is all rusted . Gonna try to remove and put on top and reseal
Great video
Very helpful
Great instructor
Thank you for making this video.
Thanks for the video, now I can do it all myself. :)
Thank you. One side of my window, the frame pulled off from the corner. I can fix it now seeing everything you just did. Thank you thank you thank you!
Glad I was able to help!
Good job! 👍
Great video. Thanks!
A+ instructions
Great video. Link to the removal video for this specific window would be great
Nice video. Where did you buy your glass?
Wish mine was this easy. Took off the brackets so the window would slide all the way up but it still doesn't allow it to pull up and out. No exposed screws anywhere on the sill or the frame.
nice work
Thank you!
Very helpful....thank you. my broken window slides vertically (the fixed upper pane needs replacing), is it essentially the same process? thanks
So, there are 2 types of the frames.
If you see 2 screws on the outside holding horizontal piece of frame that holds fixed upper pane, then the process it the same as in this video, but you will have to remove the horizontal frame first ( remove to screws and poll the frame down).
But if there are no visible screws in the outside then the fixed glass is glued to the frame, there are usually removable glass stops on the inside.
Nice Video! Are you supposed to put desiccant and inert gas to prevent the window from fogging up?
Thanks.The new glass already sealed from the manufacturer when you buy it.Gas ( orgon ) is mainly used in colder states for better insulation.
My aluminum is for single pain can I fit a dual pain glass into it? Nicely done!
Unfortunately you can’t.
Thanks for the tutorial! My mobile home windows are like that but, the glass who I want to replace is the other one (the stationary panel) no the one that you are showing, it is possible to do it or I have to replace the whole window. Thank you!!
It’s possible to replace stationary side, pretty much the same process , but I’m not too sure how to replace them on RV, I looked at mine RV windows and it looks like I have to take out the entire window out, but yours might be different.
@@roadglassandmore9064 Thanks for the answer, mine is Mobile Home (looks like house,the ones that you can move to your own land) not RV.
Safety gloves but don’t use them my type of video lol all jokes aside thank you for this informational video
Lol, I’m bad example when it comes to safety.
I have video of removing tree stump, chain saw and flip flops.
How much does it usually cost to replacethe glass part?
If you go buy glass yourself expect to pay roughly $ 5-7 a square foot, if you hire a company to do the job expect to pay $90-120 + labor charge and cost of glass ( usually 1.5-2 times the cost)
How is it not breaking when u hammer the frame in place
Rubber gasket that wraps around the glass absorbs the impact a little , plus the impact from a hammer directed towards the frame.
what's that gasket that goes around the glass called? I can't find replacement for mine
Glazing gasket. Try that. Also measure the thickness of your glass, there are different gaskets for different thickness.
@@roadglassandmore9064 thanks!
I thought those old dual pane windows had moisture absorber between the panes. Without it, you might get condensation on cold days
Old dual pane has moisture absorbing bead inside the spacer, but it can only do so much , once seal breaks there are a lot of moisture collects inside
Were did you get the glass made?
You should be able to order glass from your Local glass shop or glass supplier
Where would one buy such a glass from?
Local glass shop,/ glass supplier
How did you remove the frame?
Slider part lifts up and out, fixed side there are 2 screws on the outside you have to remove, like in this video

You didn’t show putting a new piece of glass in taking the broken one off none of that
isn't this a dual pane window,,, you completely skipped the part where you replaced the single pane? or did you just buy a pre-made dual pane window already glued together?
The window is dual pane , there is no way to replace single pane with dual pane glass! Different thickness! We just order new dual pane glass to the size needed and come back to replace it.
@@roadglassandmore9064 ok, i thought you were replacing just one pane in the dual pane, it looked at first glance that only one side of the dual pane was broken,, i had one do that before
You skip one step. How did you remove the broken glass?
After removing 2 screws frame comes off the glass.
Dude, how is this a double pane window?
Don’t understand the question?
It’s older double pane window. 1/2 overall thickness. Look closer in the video you can see 2 panes of glass with black butyl glues around the perimeter.
you did not show how you put the new glass single pane! that is the whole point !!!
The video about dual pane, single pane windows are similar though.
But if your question is how to replace one broken glass side? You can’t, dual pane glass comes vacuum sealed from the factory.
I wish you would have shown it being put back in.
I have few videos on my channel that show that process
