When used with high performance double glazing units with warm edge spacer bars and argon gas filling this system can achieve an overall U Value of 1.4W/ m²K to comply with Building Regulation Document L.


Our Skyline range of glazing bars offer an economical roof glazing solution incorporating slim sightlines. The glazing bar's strength is provided by an internal stalk (or fin) which is cut away at the top and bottom main fixing positions.

Our Traditional patent glazing system remains our customers most popular choice for use on unheated spaces such as Railway Stations, glazed canopies and covered ways where thermal properties are not a consideration.
This system has been installed on thousands of projects nationwide and is available with a choice of capping systems to suit your needs.
A truly great glazing system combined with economy and a proven track record. 30,000m² of this glazing system has been installed by us on many major railway stations throughout the UK in recent times.



This system is capable of accommodating solid or multi-wall polycarbonate sheets or double glazed units up to 28mm thick if used on unheated spaces or where compliance with Building Regulations Document L are not a consideration.


Our 'Heritage' Patent Glazing Bar range is truly unique amongst roof glazing systems; there are no alternative products available on the market which can match an original lead covered steel patent glazing bar which originates from the Victorian era. This range has been manufactured by us unaltered for over a century and is the perfect product for listed buildings and for use in the refurbishment of significant and historic buildings. This system is also still very popular for new build projects and should not to be overlooked on today's modern buildings where a unique character look is desired.

 


There are currently no relevant hENs (Harmonised European Standards) that apply to Patent Glazing systems and until such standards are produced it is not possible to CE Mark our glazing systems.
We operate in accordance with EN ISO 9001:2008 and our products conform with the Factory Production Control (FDC) requirement of the Construction Product Regulations (CPR).

 

 
  • CE Marking
         
 

On 1st July 2013 the Construction Product Directive (CPD) was superseded by the Construction Product Regulations (CPR).

The new regulation requires construction products to be marked with a CE mark to confirm conformity to product standards within the member status of the EU.

There are currently no relevant hENs (Harmonised European Standards) that apply to Patent Glazing systems and until such standards are produced it is not possible to CE Mark our glazing systems. Patent Glazing is also exempt from the requirements of the CPR because every project we undertake is bespoke with the materials being custom made to suit each individual contract. (See Article 5 section 'A' of the regulations for futher clarification).

All component parts of the completed installation that fall under the Construction Products Regulations will be CE marked and covered by their relevant Technical Data Sheet.

All the relevant technical data will be included in our O&M Manual which is supplied once a contract has been completed.

Until such a time that Patent Glazing systems have a Harmonised European Standard published we are not legally allowed to CE Mark our systems. We expect such a harmonised standard to be published in due course but as yet there is no timescale being put forward. We will of couse comply with CE Marking as soon as we are given the opportunity to do so by the regulations.
