    Superb mate. Never done it before. Got quoted £140 to replace and fit. Done it for £40. Thank you

    I’m actually so grateful god bless. I was worried what to do. I took out the frame from inside the house. Raised the window and got rid of the gap and put the frame back in place. Saved my self money and worry. Thank you

    Thanks very much Shane. I could not get the new unit in, but learning from you how to clip in the top and bottom beads first solved the problem.

    Having just broken a (thankfully) small double glazed window with a small small stone that got flung across my garden while strimming, I'm relieved to find its easier replacing a double glazed window than a older single glazed one and there not to difficult. Thanks.

    Thank you sir. I replaced our top window in the bathroom but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to refit the plastic clip things, the short ones went in easily but the long ones seemed too long 😕 I didn't realise that you could bend them..... thanks I was starting to give up.

    I found putting the trims back really tough. I found hammering them did no good at all. I spent a good hour trying to hammer them in, instead I had to push them in using a massive force. It was satisfying to hear that plastic against plastic noise as they squashed in.

  • @Crazydiamond_1974
    @Crazydiamond_1974 7 місяців тому

    Great video, just replaced the glazing in a window after putting it off for the last 6 weeks. Took half an hour all in. Would’ve been quicker if I had someone to push the glass through for me, that bit was a bit hairy!

  • @kingshearer2
    @kingshearer2 7 місяців тому

    Brilliant and thanks for explaining the purpose of the spacers since I got blue and black one's and wasn't sure if they were used for the same thing, windows come with no instructions! I don't have the tools so I'll carefully use a kitchen knife or stanley knife to prise open the beading.

    • @kingshearer2

    • @shaneatkinson
      @shaneatkinson  2 роки тому

      The is some difficult beading but using the right method it should come out without damaging.Some old council beading also is difficult and needs a special tool that releases it from the front where it meets the glass

    It's easier to remove any longer strips first. Here in Germany they use 'packers' all around the window not just underneath the glass pain. There's normally a sticker on the new glass pain which goes on the inside.
