Many of our clients experience drafty double glazing and gaps between frames. We can almost certainly diagnose your window issues over the phone within the first conversation. Our glaziers have become very familiar with replacing friction stay hinges on a daily basis. We have all the correct equipment to carry out the repairs swiftly and most importantly safely.

Gaps in your frames?

This is a sign that your friction stay hinges are most definitely in need of replacement.

There are many ways to test double glazed windows with broken hinges.

Perform your own broken/faulty window hinge test:

  • First check down the hinge side of the window frames using a small card (business card, credit/debit card can be used)
  • If the card can be pushed into the gap between the hinges, it means the hinges are now broken and faulty
  • If it is difficult to push the card in between the rubber gaskets and the frame, this would mean that the friction stay hinges are in full working order

Bedroom windows only opening at a certain angle? Maybe your uPVC windows haven’t had the correct fire escape hinges fitted?

Misty Glaze can restore your existing frames by replacing the hinges. We can upgrade them to our fire escape specification, meaning you will get full width opening if needed in unexpected emergencies.
