FAQs

What is the difference between Georgian Bar and Astragal?  

Georgian bars are inserted within the double-glazing unit, giving the illusion of divided lights without actual physical division, whereas astragal bars are fixed both inside and outside of the glass panes, physically dividing the glass to create the effect of multiple panes.

Here's a comparison table to outline the differences between Georgian Bars and Astragal:

Feature

Georgian Bars

Astragal

Primary Function

Decorative

Structural

Location

Within or on the surface of window glass

Attached to doors or sash windows

Purpose

To give the appearance of multiple panes

To cover or close the gap for sealing, security, or decoration

Appearance

Can be internal (between panes of glass) or external.

Usually a single bar or moulding that closes the gap between dual structures

Functionality

Mainly aesthetic, simulating the look of traditional windows

Offers additional security, insulation, and structural integrity

Use in Windows

Commonly used to enhance window aesthetics

Used for practical purposes but can also have a decorative aspect

Material

Matches or complements the window material (uPVC, wood, etc.)

Often made of materials that provide strength and durability (metal, wood)

What material is used for Georgian bars?    

Georgian bars can be made from a variety of materials, including uPVC, aluminium, wood, or composite materials. The choice of material often depends on the window frame material, aesthetic preferences, and budget.

Do Georgian bars reduce light?  

Georgian bars themselves do not significantly reduce the amount of light entering through a window, as they are relatively thin compared to the overall area of the glass. However, they can create shadows or patterns that slightly alter the perception of light within a room.

Can you remove Georgian bars from double glazing?  

Whether Georgian bars can be removed from double glazing depends on their type. External Georgian bars that are glued onto the glass can often be removed, although care must be taken not to damage the glass. Internal Georgian bars, which are integrated within the sealed unit of double-glazing windows, cannot be removed without replacing the entire glass unit.

What is the alternative to the Georgian bar?    

An alternative to Georgian bars for achieving a similar aesthetic is using actual multiple panes of glass separated by real bars, known as true divided lights. Another modern alternative is the simulated divided light, where a single pane of glass is used with both internal and external bars applied to simulate the appearance of true divided lights without their thermal inefficiency.

Are Georgian bar glass more expensive?  

Certainly! Below is a simplified price table for single glazed, double glazed, triple glazed, and Georgian bar glass windows, reflecting the general market prices in the UK. These prices are average estimates and can vary based on factors such as window size, frame material, and any additional features or specifications. All prices are provided in GBP (£).

Glass Type

Average Price Range

Single Glazed Glass

£100 - £200

Double Glazed Glass

£250 - £400

Triple Glazed Glass

£400 - £600

Georgian Bar Glass

£350 - £600

  • Single Glazed Glass: This is the most basic form of glazing with a single layer of glass. It's the least expensive but offers minimal insulation and noise reduction.

  • Double Glazed Glass: Consists of two layers of glass with an air gap in between, offering better insulation than single glazing, reducing noise and improving energy efficiency, leading to a higher price.

  • Triple Glazed Glass: With three layers of glass and two air gaps, triple glazing provides superior insulation, noise reduction, and energy efficiency, which is reflected in its higher price.

  • Georgian Bar Glass: Incorporates the aesthetic of Georgian style into double or triple glazed units, adding to the cost due to the additional materials and complexity of manufacturing.

These prices are indicative and can change based on the specific requirements, dimensions, and customization options for your project. For accurate pricing and to explore the best options for your needs, it's recommended to request a detailed quote from a reputable supplier or manufacturer.

Are Georgian windows old-fashioned?  

While Georgian windows have a historical origin, dating back to the 18th century, they are not necessarily old-fashioned. Their timeless design continues to be popular in both traditional and modern homes, offering elegance and character that complements a wide range of architectural styles.

How thick is Georgian glass?  

Traditional Georgian glass, being handmade, varied in thickness. However, it was generally thinner than modern glass, often around 2mm to 3mm. Modern replicas of Georgian-style windows use contemporary glass standards, which are typically thicker to meet energy efficiency requirements.

What size are Georgian bar windows? What size are Georgian bars?  

Georgian bar windows don't have a standard size; they are made to fit the specific requirements of the building or homeowner's preferences. The size of Georgian bars themselves usually ranges from 18mm to 25mm in width, but this can vary depending on the manufacturer and the design specifications.

Can you have Georgian bars with triple glazing?  

Yes, you can have Georgian bars with triple glazing. The bars can be integrated within the spaces between the glass panes or applied externally to mimic the appearance of traditional Georgian windows while still benefiting from the enhanced thermal performance of triple glazing.

How do you measure Georgian bar glass?  

To measure Georgian bar glass, you need to measure the total size of the glass pane required, including where the bars will sit. If designing a pattern with Georgian bars, measurements need to specify the placement and spacing of the bars accurately to ensure they fit the window precisely.

Where is the Georgian style most commonly used?  

The Georgian style is most commonly used in residential architecture, particularly in homes that aim for a traditional, elegant aesthetic. It is popular in the UK, the United States (especially in historical areas), and other countries influenced by British architectural history.

What are the characteristics of a Georgian glass?  

Georgian glass typically refers to glass produced during the Georgian era, characterized by its slight imperfections, such as bubbles, streaks, and a wavy surface, due to the manufacturing processes of the time. In terms of windows, the Georgian style often implies the use of small panes held together by bars, reflecting the limitations in glass manufacturing during the period.
