PAS 24

PAS 24 is a standard of testing that measures the security performance of windows and doors in the UK. Under PAS 24 compliance, the windows and doorsets have met the minimum legal requirements for security and are suitable for domestic dwellings and commercial buildings exposed to comparable risk. Every window and door installed in a new build property must meet the requirements of PAS 24 (or an equivalent standard). If you want to take the security on your project to the next level, look out for products that meet the requirements of SBD (Secured by Design). SBD is a police initiative that works to improve the security of buildings. In this article, we’ll look at both standards and explain what they mean for you and your project.

What are PAS 24 doors and PAS 24 windows?

PAS stands for Publicly Available Specification. It’s a product benchmark that helps you choose products that meet an industry standard. PAS 24 relates to the security of windows and doors. PAS 24 windows or PAS 24 doors have been independently tested for their security credentials. The tests assess the ability of the door or window to resist the type of attack normally associated with casual or opportunistic burglars. The tests are a simple pass or fail. Windows and doors are either meet the requirements of PAS 24 or they don’t. PAS 24 standards are regularly updated as the industry advances and quality increases. The latest standard (as at March 2023) is PAS 24: 2022. Before that, it was PAS 24: 2016. When specifying PAS 24 windows or PAS 24 doors, make sure your contractor uses products that meet the most up-to-date specifications – PAS 24: 2022.

How do you check windows and doors have a PAS 24 certificate?

To achieve a PAS 24 certificate, windows and doorsets (i.e. the door, its frame and its hardware) must be independently tested by certified accreditation organisations such as UKAS (the United Kingdom Accreditation Service). This ensures all products are tested to the same industry standards so you can have confidence in the result. In most cases, windows and doors need to meet PAS 24 requirements. You will therefore often find that fabricators and installers will promote PAS 24 certification in their sales and marketing materials. Your window and door manufacturer will be able to provide you with copies of PAS 24 certificates for your chosen products if required.

What is the SBD (Secured by Design) police initiative?

Secured by Design (SBD) is the official police security initiative that works to improve the security of buildings and their immediate surroundings to provide safe places to live, work, shop and visit.

The Secured by Design logo and the ‘Police Preferred Specification’ indicates that a company or a product meets the high standards set by Secured by Design.

PAS 24 accreditation is typically a baseline requirement for achieving SBD standards. However, the testing requirements of SBD go beyond the standards and requirements of PAS 24. Products are tested and re-tested over time. Inspections of the manufacturer’s production facility are also required to ensure the correct processes are maintained over time.

As such, SBD and Police Preferred Specification status provide an additional layer of reassurance when the security on your project is a priority.

Mercury Glazing is a Secured by Design member company. This means we have been tested to and passed security standards specified by SBD on our PVC-U Sash Windows.

How is the weather resistance test conducted on doors?

To conduct the weather resistance test, the door undergoes a comprehensive process. First, it is subjected to varying levels of air pressure in a pressure chamber. This simulates the force of wind pressing against the door. By doing so, the door’s ability to withstand typical wind pressures can be assessed. Following the air pressure test, the exterior face of the door is then subjected to a jet of water. This process is aimed at evaluating the door’s water tightness. Any leakages that occur during this step are carefully checked to determine the effectiveness of the door in keeping water out. Through these procedures, the weather resistance test ensures that the door is capable of withstanding different weather conditions, including wind pressure and water exposure. This comprehensive assessment guarantees that the door will provide effective protection against harsh weather elements in real-world applications.

What is the purpose of the weather resistance test for doors?

The weather resistance test for doors serves the purpose of ensuring the door’s ability to withstand different weather conditions. This test involves subjecting the door to varying levels of air pressure, simulating the force of wind pressing against it. By doing so, the test evaluates the door’s ability to resist wind pressure and maintain its structural integrity. Additionally, the test also involves spraying a jet of water onto the exterior face of the door to check for any leakages, ensuring that it is water-tight. In summary, the weather resistance test aims to determine the door’s ability to withstand wind and water, thereby guaranteeing its durability and efficiency in various weather conditions.

What tools are provided for the engineer during the manual test?

During the 15-minute manual intervention test conducted by the engineer to simulate a break-in, the British Standards Institution (BSI) provides a set of tools specifically for this purpose. The engineer is allowed to use these tools in their attempt to break into the door. One of the tools provided is a cut through tool, which is utilised to determine whether the blade can create a hole of significant size in the door. The engineer will be testing two distinct zones of the door: zone one, spanning within 400mm vertically on either side of the lock, and zone two, encompassing the remaining portion of the door. It is crucial to note that each test within this manual intervention lasts for a duration of three minutes. The door is considered to have failed if the blade of the cut through tool creates a hole with a diameter exceeding 50mm during this time.

How long does the engineer have to perform the manual test?

The engineer is allotted a timeframe of 15 minutes to conduct a comprehensive manual examination of both the door’s strength and the security provided by the lock cylinder.

What methods are used during the manual test to simulate a break-in?

During the manual test to simulate a break-in, the engineer employs various methods to assess the strength and security of the door and lock cylinder. The engineer begins by using common lock breaking techniques such as mole gripping, aimed at testing the durability of the lock. Additionally, the engineer conducts a manual intervention test, which allows them 15 minutes to attempt breaking into the door using tools provided by the BSI (British Standards Institution).

To evaluate the door’s resistance to unauthorised access, a cut-through tool is employed. This tool is specifically designed to examine if the blade can create a hole of significant size on the door. The test is conducted in two designated zones: Zone One refers to any part of the door within 400mm vertically on either side of the lock, while Zone Two encompasses all other areas of the door.

Each test is conducted for a duration of three minutes, and the door is deemed to have failed if the blade manages to create a hole with a diameter exceeding 50mm. By performing these comprehensive tests, the engineer can thoroughly assess the door’s vulnerability to various manual intrusion methods.

What is the purpose of the manual test for doors?

The purpose of the manual test for doors is to assess the strength and security of the door and lock cylinder. A qualified engineer is given a set time of 15 minutes to conduct a series of tests that simulate common lock breaking methods used by potential intruders. The engineer is provided with tools specified by the BSI to attempt to gain unauthorised access to the door. This manual intervention test aims to evaluate the door’s resistance against forced entry.

How is the hard impact test conducted?

The hard impact test is conducted to evaluate the resistance of the doors’ individual components to shock forces. This test involves the use of a metal battering ram attached to a pendulum. The ram, weighing 50kg, is pulled back and released three times. It is designed to mimic the door being struck with a concentrated force.

During the test, the pendulum is pulled back, applying potential energy to the ram. The ram is then released and swings downward towards the door. It strikes the door with a force that is intended to simulate a strong impact. To ensure consistency, the ram is dropped from a set height of 800mm above its resting position.

By subjecting the door to repeated impacts from the ram, this test aims to assess the durability of the door’s components. It helps to determine whether the door can withstand concentrated forces and continue to function as intended without any structural or functional damage. Through this rigorous testing process, the effectiveness of the door in withstanding impacts is thoroughly evaluated.

What is the purpose of the hard impact test for doors?

The purpose of conducting a hard impact test for doors is to assess the ability of the door’s individual components to withstand and absorb shock forces.

How is the solid impact test conducted?

The solid impact test is conducted to assess the resistance of the door to shock forces. This test involves a sand-filled leather bag weighing 30kg that is dropped in a pendulum motion three times. The purpose of using a sand bag is to simulate the impact of a uniformed force across a wide area of the door, replicating a scenario where the door is struck. The bag is dropped from a height of 800mm above its resting position, simulating a significant impact force. This test is designed to evaluate the door’s ability to withstand shocks and determine its general shock resistance.

What is the purpose of the solid impact test for doors?

The solid impact test for doors serves the purpose of evaluating the door’s ability to withstand shock forces. This is achieved by replicating the impact of a sand-filled leather bag in a pendulum motion. The bag, weighing 30kg, is dropped from a height of 800mm, simulating a uniform force that strikes a wide area of the door. By subjecting the door to this test, its overall shock resistance can be assessed and determined.

How is the force applied during the mechanical loading test?

During the mechanical loading test, a perpendicular force of 450kg is exerted on each piece of hardware. The edges of the door are pulled in opposite directions using a series of hooks while simultaneously pushing the opening sash with a hydraulic press. To ensure there are no weak spots, this action is repeated on multiple points of the door. The force is applied gradually over a period of 20-30 seconds without any sudden impact. Additionally, after this initial test, an additional 100kg force is applied using the hydraulic press to further push against the already tested frame. This comprehensive process ensures that the force is applied thoroughly and consistently during the mechanical loading test.

What force is applied during the mechanical loading test?

During the mechanical loading test, a perpendicular force of 450kg is applied to each piece of hardware. The test involves pulling the edges of the door in opposite directions using hooks, as well as exerting pressure on the opening sash using a hydraulic press. Multiple points on the door are subjected to this action to ensure that there are no weak or vulnerable areas.

What is the purpose of the mechanical loading test for doors?

The purpose of the mechanical loading test for doors is to thoroughly assess the door’s strength and security. This test involves applying forces to various points on the door, including the profile pieces, locking mechanism, and other security features. By subjecting these components to a force of 450kg perpendicular to each hardware piece and pulling the edges in opposite directions with hooks, the test aims to determine whether the door can withstand prying attempts. Additionally, a hydraulic press pushes on the opening sash, further examining its resilience. Furthermore, a force of 100kg is applied to the already tested frame to assess its ability to withstand additional pressure. Through this comprehensive evaluation, the mechanical loading test helps identify any potential vulnerable areas that could compromise the door’s strength and security.

What is Approved Document Q?

Approved Document Q is a set of guidelines that came into effect in October 2015 in England. It complements the existing Q1 of Schedule 1 to the Building Regulations 2010. The purpose of Approved Document Q is to ensure the security of dwellings by requiring new build properties to be capable of resisting unauthorized access to both the dwelling itself and any part of the building that could provide access to a flat within it. In order to meet the requirements of Building Regulations, doors and windows must comply with PAS 24:2022 standards or similar standards that guarantee their security.

Is PAS 24 a legal requirement?

Yes, PAS 24 or an equivalent standard is a legal requirement in order to meet Building Regulations for new build properties.

Is PAS 24 the same as Secured By Design?

In most cases, PAS 24 accreditation is typically a baseline requirement for achieving SBD standards. However, the testing requirements of SBD go beyond the standards and requirements of PAS 24. Products are tested and re-tested over time. Inspections of the manufacturer’s production facility are also required to ensure the correct processes are maintained over time. To provide a more thorough understanding, it is important to note that Secured by Design (SBD) is an initiative that organises accreditation for products on behalf of the Police. While PAS 24 and Secured by Design are independent of each other, SBD products must meet PAS 24 standards as a minimum requirement, in addition to fulfilling other SBD specifications. This indicates that while PAS 24 accreditation is crucial, it is not synonymous with Secured by Design. Therefore, SBD and Police Preferred Specification status provide an additional layer of reassurance when prioritising security for your project. SBD not only requires adherence to PAS 24 standards but also imposes further testing and inspection processes to ensure ongoing compliance and the maintenance of correct manufacturing procedures. This comprehensive approach enhances the level of security provided by SBD-accredited products, making them a reliable choice for crime prevention

Why internal screening is worth a thought

Interior architecture is about more than just how a home looks. The ways in which we choose to divide our indoor spaces also play an important role in how those spaces feel – and even how we function within them. Open-plan interior design schemes have long been the obvious alternative to the traditional walled methods, but more and more people are looking for a different approach, a middle-ground between the two. Here’s where internal screening comes in. Screening systems have all the thermal and acoustic insulation credentials as conventional walls whilst offering the bonuses associated with an open-plan setup – a real best-of-both-worlds solution – and all at a cost that might surprise you. If you had thought of joining the broken-plan revolution but weren’t sure where to start, read on for our top tips on how to get the ball rolling.

Boundaries: A Dividing Issue

Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten what you had gone in there for? Well, you’re not alone. This phenomenon affects us all, irrespective of age. It has come to be known as the location updating effect, but is commonly referred to by another name: the doorway effect.

An explanation for this effect is that we have evolved a system of categorisation in our brains to distinguish between physical environments – and the functions we might be expected to perform in them. In our homes, we build different memory associations with different rooms and our brains group these associations for us. This means that when we walk from one part of the house to another, we also need to access different pathways in the brain. Just like a computer, this reconfiguration can get jammed.

This is all by way of saying that our relationships with our lived-in spaces are a lot more profound than we might have previously thought. How we compartmentalise our homes has a fundamental effect on how we live in them, so achieving the right balance could be just what your interior architecture scheme needs without you even realising it.

The Benefits: At a Glance

We cover these more extensively elsewhere, but they’re worth mentioning again here. Indoor screening systems are as flexible as they are durable. They can be made to fit any design and can be installed with the comfort of knowing they will last and look great for years to come – with minimal maintenance required.

This versatility is a key point. Given that they can be manufactured to meet the needs of the individual client, screening can be used for anything from an update or redesign of an existing structure to a new build, be it commercial or residential. So, even if you weren’t thinking of tearing the walls down, there’s still plenty of scope for internal screening systems to feature in your interior design plans.

The Straight Swap: Screening Systems as Room Dividers

For those who prioritise the light and airy feel of an open-plan design but wish to retain thermal insulation and acoustic isolation, internal screening systems can’t be beaten. The choice of styles and functions available gives unprecedented freedom to how a living space might be divided as well as the feel of those boundaries – with glass being the perfect material for achieving flexibility between openness and privacy.

The appeal of the open-plan style is obvious – and the trend is unlikely to fade anytime soon – but there are two factors to this interior architecture movement that are hard to ignore: energy efficiency and the lack of adaptability. Having one big, open space is going to be heavier on the heating bills, but it also makes it difficult for different people to be doing different things at the same time, especially if there are youngsters running about.

Internal screening systems enable designs that are equal parts sturdy and flexible. At Mercury, our range of screens and doors offer robust solutions to any design aesthetic. Whether you were thinking of fixed screens or one of a variety of door styles available – or a combination of all of the above – these systems can be made to your exact specifications, without the need for compromising on stylistic consistency.

Subdivision: Using Screening to Partition a Room

Having clearly defined spaces can have some interesting by-products – as evidenced by the doorway effect – but our need to distinguish between the functions of particular places also has its obvious advantages. Our mode of behaviour before sleep will quite naturally be different to when we are preparing our meals, for example.

If we live alone, this change of mode of behaviour is restricted to one person. When there’s more than just one of us in a living space, however, there’s a very good chance that these modes will be in conflict with another, in which case an open-plan environment can quickly become uncomfortable.

With internal screening, any indoor space can be partitioned to suit your specific needs. Be it a work-from-home office or just a quiet spot to read a book whilst keeping an eye on the kids, a simple partition in a physical space might be all you need – and screening is an easy way to achieve this, however big or small the space may be.

The Statement: Screening as Centrepiece

Focusing on the practical benefits of using internal screening misses one vital aspect: its strong aesthetic appeal. Well placed pivot or sliding doors not only enhance the flow of light and sense of calm in a home but they also exist as architectural points of focus in their own right. Gone are the days when every interior architecture decision was made on purely functional terms – they can be as much of a visual statement as the art on your walls, too.

Styles in Practice: A Quick Guide

If you think that internal screening and doors are for you but you can’t see how they might fit into your pre-existing design plan, we’ve put together a couple of examples of where various styles are commonly used and how they might fit into your ideas…

The Smooth Slide – Sliding internal doors are ideal for partitioning a larger room into separate spaces – a living room being split into an office and a playroom, for example. A whole wall being replaced by a sliding door is space-saving when compared to conventional setups and lends any home a contemporary, elegant feel.
The Chic Pivot – Pivot doors are a modern and stylish equivalent to conventional units, in that they rotate along a vertical axis when operated. They come into their own thanks to their super slim and uncluttered framing. Historically synonymous with extensions, they’re becoming more popular inside our homes too. A real eye-catching alternative.
The Steady Hinged – Designed with those who enjoy the conventional setups in mind. Customisation is every bit as much a part of the package as with other internal screening options, so they can be made to fit any design plans whilst adhering to all of the functional and aesthetic credentials of sliding and pivot equivalents.

The Thin Line between Separation and Integration

A home needs to be many things all at once. Finding the right balance can be tricky and often the conventional methods require some kind of compromise, either on a property’s performance or its aesthetics. Internal screening offers us the opportunity to segment our lived-in spaces exactly as we see fit with all the associated positives of an open-plan design – all while looking great and never requiring a drop of paint. Win-win situations rarely get clearer than that. Click here to find out more about the internal screening solutions Mercury has to offer or speak with one of our experts today.

An Energy Performance Certificate rates the energy efficiency of a commercial building. It uses a grading system – A is the most efficient grade and G is the least efficient.

Your commercial building needs to have an Energy Performance Certificate if:

you rent out or sell the premises
a building under construction is finished
there are changes to the number of parts used for separate occupation and the changes involve providing or extending fixed heating, air conditioning or mechanical ventilation systems.

You don’t need an Energy Performance Certificate if your commercial building is any of these:

listed or officially protected and the minimum energy performance requirements would unacceptably alter it
a temporary building only going to be used for 2 years or less
used as a place of worship or for other religious activities
an industrial site, workshop or non-residential agricultural building that doesn’t use much energy
a detached building with a total floor space under 50 square metres
due to be demolished by the seller or landlord and they have all the relevant planning and conservation consents.

For the full guidelines on Energy Performance Certificates for commercial buildings, visit the government’s website.

What are the minimum requirements for an Energy Performance Certificate for commercial buildings?

From 1 April 2018, properties under new commercial leases needed an Energy Performance Certificate rating of at least ‘E’. From 1 April 2023, the minimum requirement will be applied retrospectively. It will be an offence to continue to let a property that does not reach the minimum standard of ‘E’ (unless it’s exempt). It is likely the minimum standards will become more strict over time as the UK works towards its target of net zero by 2050. At the moment, it seems the minimum standard for compliance will be band ‘B’ by 2030. Some estimates suggest that many commercial buildings will need to be upgraded to achieve this – one survey found that 80% of London’s office buildings are below band ‘B’.

How can you improve an Energy Performance Certificate for commercial buildings?

If you need to improve the Energy Performance Certificate rating of your commercial building, you might be wondering what you can do.

One of the most effective ways to upgrade your commercial building’s energy performance is to upgrade its window and door systems.

Here at Mercury Glazing we specialise in commercial aluminium windows and doors that help to reduce energy loss and enhance the thermal performance of commercial buildings. We work closely with you from start to finish to ensure you invest in a glazing solution that upgrades your building’s thermal performance and enhances its aesthetics.

The Alitherm 300 Aluminium Window is an energy-efficient and elegant window that works well in commercial buildings of all types. The Alitherm Heritage 47 Aluminium Window provides excellent energy efficiency without compromising on period aesthetics. The Aluminium Sliding Sash Window helps to preserve historic characteristics and style while upgrading thermal performance. We also supply a wide range of commercial doors suitable for all types of project from offices to shopfronts.

Adding value by upgrading the Energy Performance Certificate rating for commercial buildings

Clearly, there is a cost associated with investing in new window and door systems for your commercial building. However, the investment will reap rewards. Most importantly, it will help to make sure you are compliant with the new regulations so you can continue to let your commercial building. It will also enhance your commercial building’s value, which will affect how much rent you can charge or how much the building is worth when you want to sell it.

It’s very easy to assume that commercial glazing and standard residential double glazing are the same. In fact, they’re very different. Here are three reasons why. The differences between the applications of commercial glazing and double glazing When you think about double glazing for residential projects, it’s typically standard windows and doors and perhaps roof lanterns. Commercial glazing is used on a much larger scale and across many styles of building applications. For example, a commercial building might have standard casement windows, doors and skylights. It might also use curtain walling. There might be internal applications too, as space dividers or stair rails.

Residential glazing is designed to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a house. Having said that, commercial glazing has to be aesthetically appealing too. But there are other requirements and project specifications to take into account. A shopfront will need to enhance the view of what’s inside to entice shoppers in. An office building will need to maximise natural light to make it a pleasant place to work.

The differences between the regulations for commercial glazing and double glazing. The regulations for commercial glazing are more complex and demanding than for residential double glazing. This is because there are much bigger demands on it.

A commercial building may be much higher than a residential building, which means it will be subject to much more demanding weather patterns. This has implications for wind loading properties and weather proofing.

Many more people will be using the space so there are health and safety implications in terms of the performance of the glazing. Commercial glazing must be very strong to help prevent accidents and break-ins.

Residential glazing is often designed to absorb solar energy. In contrast, there are usually many more people and much more electrical equipment in a commercial building, which means much more heat is generated than in a residential building. To prevent overheating by adding solar heat into the mix, commercial glazing must limit the amount of solar absorption.

At the same time, just like residential double glazing, thermal efficiency is an important consideration. Thermally efficient double glazing in both residential and commercial properties helps to limit the amount of energy-intensive heating and cooling that’s needed, helping to reduce the running costs of a building.

The differences between the installation of commercial glazing and double glazing. As we’ve said, there are typically big differences in scale between a residential building and a commercial building.

Because a commercial building is by design a lot larger than a domestic property and there are typically more people on site during construction, there are much more demanding health and safety requirements for installing commercial glazing. It requires specialist training, materials, tools and equipment.

Because the stakes are much higher, it is important to choose the right installer for a commercial glazing project. Many installers specialise in commercial glazing and have the credentials and experience that are needed to work on projects like these. Your commercial glazing manufacturer or supplier will be a good source of advice on the best commercial glazing installer for your requirements.

Choosing a commercial glazing supplier

For half a century, uPVC’s popularity has steadily grown to become one of the materials of choice for windows that we see today. As well as looking great, one of the main reasons for this increase in demand is the fact that they are relatively maintenance and hassle-free when compared to traditional wooden constructions. Anyone with wooden window frames will be quick to tell you how they are susceptible to weathering and need regular treatment to keep them looking and working optimally. With uPVC windows, however, often years can go by without them needing drastic attention. While it is true that uPVCs don’t require the same level of upkeep as their wooden equivalents, they do benefit from a regular clean in order to maintain their appearance and to remove any build up of dirt or dust that may have accumulated. This window grooming procedure isn’t difficult and it doesn’t take long but there are a couple of things you should do to achieve the best results – and a couple that you shouldn’t. Follow the steps below to keep your windows looking fresh and bright.

How often should uPVC windows be cleaned?

The answer to this very much depends on the location of your property. If you live in a rural setting that doesn’t experience much traffic and your home isn’t too exposed to the extremes of the weather, you will find that giving your windows a good clean every 6 months will be sufficient. Windows in exposed coastal areas get a build-up of salt residue so it’s important that this is cleaned off regularly. If you live in a more urban area or near the coast then halving the time between cleans is recommended, which would be every 3 months.

These times are a guide. As an estimate, they should give you an idea of how often you can expect to have to clean them, but it can vary depending on many factors, like seasonal variation and weather. It always pays to be vigilant.

The Method

Although cleaning most things is pretty much a variation on a theme, the materials and products you should be using change according to the surface you are trying to clean. We’ve broken the job down into sections, so you know exactly what to use, and where.

Frames – Inside

Open the window as far as it will go. You will notice a change in resistance when it reaches its maximum extension – don’t open it past this point.
Use a vacuum cleaner to get rid of any obvious bits of dirt and dust from the hinges. Depending on the shape of the opening and the make of your appliance, the attachment you need here might vary.
Using the soft brush attachment of your vacuum, run around the frame and suck up any cobwebs or other build ups. Be sure to get in all the little gaps and corners of the frame.
Wipe the insides of the frames using a soft, clean cloth and warm water. Mix in a mild soap solution to the water for best results.
Apply a few drops of multi-purpose oil to the hinges. This will help keep them lubricated and squeak-free. Hold a piece of kitchen towel under the hinge when you apply the drops to catch any run-off.

Frames – Outside
More than the dirt itself, damage can often be caused to the frames of your windows by overzealous cleaning. This will only ever be a problem if stubborn stains and deposits have been allowed to accumulate. To avoid this issue, a lighter but more regular clean is advised.

Close the window
Brush off any loose bits of dirt with a soft brush or soft cloth. The cloths you use should be soft enough that it won’t leave any scratch marks.
Rinse the window with a hose, removing any dirt or dust. If you don’t have a hose, skip this step.
Either with a small squirt of washing-up liquid or a specific window-cleaning liquid (the type from a bottle, not a spray), make up a soapy solution. Use warm water for this.
Wash the window frames and pane. Start from a top corner and work your way down, finishing with the bottom part of the frame.
Rinse again with clean water from a hose. If you don’t have one, as before, skip this step.

Properties with windows featuring surface-mounted Georgian bars, or ‘Astragal Bars’ as they are referred to in the trade, should be approached with more care as they can become dislodged especially if using long-reach window cleaning systems

Notes on Products and Tools

Squeegee – A sight verging on ubiquity whenever you see a professional window cleaner – and for good reason. If you have one, use this instead of a cloth to clean the windowpanes. Using the soft blade side, pass the squeegee across the pane. Again, start from the top corner, and swipe from side to side, working your way down to the bottom. Use your finger or a cloth to rid the squeegee of excess water between swipes. Vinegar – A time-honoured favourite for countless home-cleaning tasks. Mix up a small batch of solution using a ratio of 1-part vinegar to 4-parts water. Start with 100ml of vinegar and 400ml of water. Add a couple of drops of washing-up liquid to the solution. Use a soft cloth to apply the solution to the window, then rub bits of old newspaper in a circular motion across the pane to polish the surface to a perfect finish. Window-cleaning spray – Apply and remove in the same way as vinegar, but be careful not to spray any on the frames.

Sills

Either with a small squirt of washing-up liquid or a specific window-cleaning liquid (the type from a bottle, not a spray), make up a soapy solution. Again, use warm water.
Wash the sills. You can use a soft cloth or a sponge for this, but make sure the sponge is the type that won’t leave any scratches.
If there are particularly stubborn patches of dirt, you may need to soak the sill for 5-10 minutes to remove them. As long as they’ve been attended to regularly enough, this should do the trick.

Mould and Discolouring

Various moulds can develop on uPVC in the right conditions and over time older and cheaper types have been known to discolour with age. If it has yellowed due to its inferior quality, there isn’t too much that can be done about it; if it has discoloured because of neglect or there’s a build-up of mould, our good friend vinegar might just save the day.

Mix a water/vinegar solution with a 4:1 ratio. Start with 150ml of vinegar and 600ml of hot water.
Pour the solution into an empty, clean spray bottle.
Spray the solution onto the uPVC and leave it for 10 minutes.
Wipe the surface down with a clean, dry, soft cloth.

Important things to remember

Always use soft cloths and non-scratchy sponges and make sure they are clean.
Always take care with how much pressure you apply while cleaning uPVC.
Never use bleach or white spirits. UPVC is porous; these products will damage its surface. Many cleaning products also use colouring which can stain your frames permanently.
Never use wire wool or scouring pads or anything with a rough surface. UPVC is susceptible to being scratched.
Never use caustic or ammonia-based products.

The Rub

There’s nothing better than stepping back from a job well done. Following the steps outlined above, you’ll keep your windows and frames looking as good as new for years to come.

Leading specialist fabricator Mercury Glazing Supplies Ltd has expanded its production facility by a further 50% since acquiring its third manufacturing unit at its Gloucester-based headquarters. The additional production space will be used to manufacture its extensive range of aluminium windows, doors, curtain walling and screening products.

The latest expansion is a testament to Mercury’s continuing success and, in this case, the increase in demand for their aluminium products. Martin Halford, Director at Mercury, said: “We have seen continued year-on-year growth for our aluminium products and even though the market is showing signs of a slowdown due to the economic pressures, we still have a very large pipeline of work across domestic, trade and commercial sectors. This latest expansion will help us continue to deliver exceptional quality and service to our growing customer base.”

Mercury offers a comprehensive range of aluminium products which are suitable for both domestic and commercial applications. Working closely with leading industry supply partners, they manufacture a full range of aluminium products including windows, bi-folding doors, sliding doors, designer doors, heritage windows, commercial doors, shopfronts, curtain walling and internal screening systems.

Martin said: “It is very important to us that our customer experience is excellent. This latest expansion will allow us to continue offering an outstanding level of service across our range of aluminium products and give us room to further expand as our business continues to grow.”

The latest expansion is the third dedicated manufacturing centre in Gloucester and forms part of the company’s four-year growth plan. Martin said: “We are now in the middle of our four-year growth strategy and we remain laser-focused on achieving this while maintaining the customer service levels, turnaround times and quality that we’ve built our name on.”

An established high-end manufacturer, Mercury has a reputation for leading the way in fabricating the specialist products the market demands. Alongside their impressive range of aluminium products, the company is a longstanding Spectus vertical sliding window fabricator. Martin said: “We have always offered a strong product portfolio to support our customers across all sectors. At the same, it’s important to value the stability and resilience we offer. Mercury was founded in 2002 and we recently celebrated our 20^th anniversary. It’s a reassuring track record that I know our customers appreciate.”

Production expansion is always noteworthy, but Mercury’s level of quality and continued investment makes them a reassuring partner for any installer or commercial contractor, something that is reflected in their rapidly growing business.

There are many options when it comes to double glazing for commercial properties. The question is, how do you start to narrow down your ideas? The first step is to talk to a commercial glazing expert about your double glazing ideas. They will have insight you can rely on when it comes the aesthetics of the double glazing for commercial properties. Their expertise will also be invaluable with the technical specifications that are so important to meeting the regulatory requirements of commercial buildings.

Ideas on the aesthetics of double glazing for commercial properties

Aluminium has been the first choice for commercial properties for many years. It offers exceptional design versatility so it can be used in a wide variety of building styles and commercial applications. Here at Mercury Glazing we manufacture a range of aluminium double glazing that are suitable for a wide variety of commercial buildings.

For example, Alitherm 300 Aluminium Windows have the elegant and understated style of a traditional casement window, which makes them ideal for commercial refurbishment projects. They also bring classic style to new constructions.

If you need a double glazing solution for a heritage or listed building, take a look at our Alitherm Heritage 47 Aluminium Windows. They have been engineered specifically to replace existing steel and Crittall windows, so they are ideal option, particularly when planning and conservation constraints are a factor. Their distinctive looks also bring a design-led feel to new build commercial projects.

If you need sliding sash windows, our Aluminium Sliding Sash Windows could be the answer.

It is also worth looking at PVC-U versions of sliding sash windows – we offer PVC-U Fully Welded Vertical Sliders and PVC-U Mechanically Jointed Vertical Sliders. We are one of the UK’s largest manufacturers of the market-leading PVC-U vertical sliding sash window, so we really are the experts on these complex window designs.

Both aluminium and PVC-U frames are available in a multitude of different colour options, so you can select a colour that blends in or makes a strong design statement to support your architectural specifications. Your commercial glazing partner will be ready to discuss your design ideas to help you select the shade that’s right for your project.

The second is the strict manufacturing protocols the company has in place. Martin says: “High end products mean you need to be laser-focused when it comes to product quality. There’s no room to cut corners and we never forget this. When you buy from Mercury you’re buying the reassurance of attention to detail you can rely on.”

Ideas on the technical requirements of double glazing for commercial properties

All buildings need to meet stringent regulations when it comes to factors such as thermal efficiency, security and ventilation. One size doesn’t fit all and the specifications of your commercial glazing are likely to differ from project to project depending on factors including location, thermal efficiency requirements and security considerations. For example, high rise buildings will have higher wind loading requirements; buildings in busy city centres may need acoustic glazing solutions. When it comes to security, ground floor glazing might have more demanding requirements than glazing on upper floors. When you work with a reputable commercial glazing company you can be sure you will have an expert partner by your side to help you with the technical requirements. They will be able to run calculations to assess the requirements of your commercial glazing. They will also have the experience to be able to identify requirements you may have missed. In short, they should be your first port of call when it comes to your double glazing ideas for all commercial projects.

Choosing your commercial double glazing expert

It is essential to choose a commercial double glazing company with a strong track record in working with architects, contractors and specifiers on commercial contracts. Mercury has been manufacturing a comprehensive range of durable aluminium and PVC-U windows and doors suitable for commercial and residential properties since 2002. We’re a proudly British manufacturer and a reliable team of over 60 highly trained staff with decades of commercial experience and expertise. With a strong track record of delivering great results, we’ll suggest the best options for your commercial projects, considering fundamental factors such as style, thermal efficiency and budget. With our in-house manufacturing expertise and competitive prices, we will work closely with you to support you at every level. So, to start the conversation about your commercial glazing requirements, get in touch today.

Specialist fabricator Mercury Glazing has reported a year-on-year growth of 18% with the company achieving its highest ever monthly sales figure in September. Martin Halford, Mercury’s Director, said: “We are delighted to be reporting such strong sales growth especially against the backdrop of so much market uncertainty. The economic situation is undoubtedly choppy so this is no time for complacency, but it’s important to observe these figures.”

Martin says the company’s ongoing success is down to three clear factors. The first is its strong portfolio of specialist products across PVC-U and aluminium. The company is a leading fabricator of the market-leading Spectus PVC-U Vertical Slider System and they also manufacture a range of aluminium products from Cortizo and Smart aluminium systems. Martin comments: “We have a 20-year track record for manufacturing high-end specialist products. They are typically installed in the high value commercial and residential projects that are less affected by economic turbulence. And history shows that ‘heritage’ and high-end products tend to be protected during economic downturns.”

Lastly, it’s investment in plant and people. The company is committed to continuous investment to ensure it has state-of-the-art manufacturing processes. Martin comments: “Technology is advancing the whole time and we keep our finger on the pulse to ensure we are using the best machines that deliver the best in quality. When you add in the expertise and experience of our staff, it’s a winning proposition.”

Mercury Glazing is in the middle of a four-year plan for growth. As these latest sales figures show, it remains well on course. It’s testament to a compelling offering that continues to make the company the go-to for specialist, feature-rich products.

Materials

A hallmark of late 20th/early 21st century public spaces is their use of plain, open entrances, with emphasis on glass and metal in the construction of the facade. Think of any recently built arts centre or government building and the concept would be on display. As well as being relatively hassle-free with regards to maintenance, having large pains of glass on a building’s frontage gives the impression of clarity and transparency, and metal of industry and authority. Alternatively, a traditionally painted or treated wall, with signage and on-brand messaging, inspires a sense of charm and homeliness and care. Each of these has positives, but they send very different messages as to the type of business your customers might expect to find inside.
