										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Composite doors are revered for their robust construction, enhanced security features, and appealing aesthetics. They amalgamate various materials, each chosen for its specific beneficial properties, resulting in a door that&#8217;s highly resistant to weathering and exceedingly durable. Their aesthetic appeal is a bonus, making them a popular choice among homeowners aiming for both security and elegance. Delving into composite door maintenance is pivotal in preserving these attributes, ensuring your door remains an inviting entrance to your abode.

&nbsp;

<hr />

<h3></h3>
<h3>Routine Cleaning Techniques</h3>
Regular cleaning is pivotal in maintaining the vibrant appearance and functional integrity of your composite door. Here are Jack of Glass’ recommendations for the care of your composite door:
<ul>
 	<li>Clean your internal and external door facings, along with any glass, at least every four months following the cleaning advice found later in this guide.</li>
 	<li>Polish the handles and letter plate with a quality wax furniture polish after cleaning, applying the polish directly to the cloth and not the product.
<h3><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-6121" src="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham.jpg" alt="Grey Composite Doors Chesham" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham.jpg 850w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-768x768.jpg 768w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-400x400.jpg 400w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-75x75.jpg 75w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-460x460.jpg 460w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></h3>
</li>
</ul>
By adhering to a routine cleaning schedule, you not only preserve the door&#8217;s aesthetic appeal but also prevent potential functional issues caused by the accumulation of dirt and grime.
<h3>Tackling Stubborn Stains</h3>
Occasionally, you may encounter stubborn stains that demand a bit more attention. In such instances, it&#8217;s imperative to use non-abrasive cleaning agents to ensure the door&#8217;s surface isn&#8217;t scratched or marred. For persistent or unusual stains, feel free to consult with Jack of Glass for professional advice on the best cleaning agents and methods to use.
<h3></h3>
<h3>Protective Measures</h3>
A composite door&#8217;s resilience to harsh weather conditions is notable, but taking additional protective measures ensures its longevity.
<ul>
 	<li>Annually inspect the rubber seal fitted to the outer frame for signs of tearing, cracking, or shrinking, and contact Jack of Glass if any anomalies are found.</li>
 	<li>Lubricate moving parts annually to ensure smooth operation.</li>
</ul>
These protective steps will keep your door functioning optimally and maintain its aesthetic allure over time.

&nbsp;

<hr />

<h3></h3>
<h3>DIY Maintenance and Professional Care</h3>
Balancing between DIY upkeep and professional maintenance is key to ensuring your composite door remains a steadfast and inviting entryway to your home.
<ul>
 	<li>Annually check the operation of the key mechanism with the door open. If excessive force is required to engage the lock mechanism, lubricate the key-way with a silicone-based spray lubricant like WD40.</li>
 	<li>Check for any gaps between the letter plate and the face of the door, tightening the screws behind the internal flap if necessary.</li>
</ul>
And of course, if you ever feel uncertain about any aspect of your composite door&#8217;s maintenance, <a href="https://www.google.com/maps?ll=51.631164,-0.726293&amp;z=14&amp;t=m&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=GB&amp;mapclient=embed&amp;cid=7075309902854185642">contact the team</a> at <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/about-us/">Jack of Glass</a> who are always on hand to provide professional advice and services or download our <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/careguide.pdf">online brochure</a>.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Bi-fold doors have become increasingly popular among homeowners, and for good reason. These doors offer a plethora of benefits that can transform your living space in ways you might not have imagined. At Jack of Glass, we specialise in providing aluminium slimline bi-fold doors that are perfect for homes in High Wycombe, Aylesbury, Amersham, and other areas in Buckinghamshire.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Design Versatility</h4>
One of the standout features of our aluminium bi-fold doors is their design versatility. These doors are fully customisable, allowing you to create a panoramic door that not only suits your personal style but also complements the existing architecture of your home. The sleek profile and modern design make them an ideal choice for any contemporary home.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Space-Saving Benefits</h4>
Traditional doors swing inwards or outwards, taking up valuable space. Bi-fold doors, on the other hand, fold back onto themselves, saving you a considerable amount of room. This is particularly beneficial for smaller homes or areas where space is at a premium.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Enhanced Natural Light</h4>
Our selection of aluminium doors is designed with slim sightlines and expansive panels of glass that help to illuminate any space by letting natural light flood the room. This not only creates a more inviting atmosphere but also reduces the need for artificial lighting during the day, thereby saving on energy costs.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Ease of Operation</h4>
Bi-fold doors are incredibly easy to operate. With a simple push, you can open up an entire wall to the outside, or close it just as easily when you need to. The doors glide smoothly along their tracks, making it effortless to open and close them.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Indoor-Outdoor Flow</h4>
During the warmer months, you can fold back the doors to blend the interiors of your home with your garden, effectively expanding your living space. This creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas, perfect for social gatherings or simply enjoying a quiet moment in nature.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Security Aspects</h4>
When it comes to security, our aluminium bi-fold doors are second to none. The sturdy frame and toughened glass provide an excellent barrier against unwanted intruders. Aluminium is an inherently strong material, resistant to warping, cracking, and rotting, ensuring that your home remains safe and secure year after year.
<h4></h4>
<h4>Long-Term Investment</h4>
Investing in our bi-fold doors is a decision you won&#8217;t regret. The robust profile and modern design offer excellent thermal performance, keeping your home warmer for longer periods. This results in reduced energy consumption and lower energy bills. Moreover, the durability of aluminium ensures that your doors will stand the test of time, even during the harshest of winters and hottest of summers.

<br>
&nbsp;

Before purchasing new windows and doors, pay close attention to their energy efficiency. High Wycombe&#8217;s climate requires solutions that can keep your home well-insulated throughout the year. Look for products with high energy efficiency ratings to ensure optimal comfort and reduced energy bills. Jack of Glass offers a range of energy-efficient <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/windows/">windows</a> and <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors/">doors</a> are tailored to the local weather conditions.

&nbsp;<br><br>

<strong>Choosing the Right Materials</strong>

&nbsp;<br>

Selecting the right materials for your windows and doors is vital. Each material, whether <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/replacement-double-glazed-units-high-wycombe/">uPVC</a>, timber, or <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors/bi-fold-doors/">aluminium</a>, has its unique characteristics. Consider factors such as durability, maintenance requirements, and their suitability for High Wycombe&#8217;s weather conditions. Jack of Glass can provide expert guidance on material selection based on their experience in the area.

&nbsp;<br><br>

<strong>Researching Local Climate Compatibility</strong>

&nbsp;<br>

The local climate and weather conditions play a significant role in determining the effectiveness of your windows and doors. High Wycombe experiences varying weather patterns, so opt for materials that can withstand rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations. Local experts like Jack of Glass can offer valuable advice based on their understanding of the area.

&nbsp;<br><br>

<strong>Considering Long-Term Value</strong>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Homeowners today are constantly looking for ways to improve their properties, not just aesthetically, but also in terms of energy efficiency and cost savings. One significant way to achieve this is through the installation of double-glazed windows and doors. Jack of Glass, a leading specialist in the supply and <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/2023/04/06/how-much-does-double-glazing-cost-in-high-wycombe/">installation of these transformative features in High Wycombe</a> and the surrounding areas, is here to guide you through the impressive benefits of upgrading your existing fittings.
<h4><strong>Understanding Double Glazing</strong></h4>
So, what exactly is double glazing, and how does it work? Double-glazed windows and doors are essentially made up of two glass panes separated by a gap, usually filled with argon gas. This design creates a highly effective barrier that reduces heat transfer, noise pollution, and condensation, thus providing your home with year-round comfort and tranquility.
<h4><strong><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-14927 alignleft" src="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-400x400.jpg 400w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-75x75.jpg 75w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized-460x460.jpg 460w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/double-glaze-resized.jpg 500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />Why Choose Jack of Glass</strong></h4>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[Here at Jack of Glass, we know that the pandemic has brought people a lot of time to reassess their living space and to make the decision to invest in their homes. If you’ve made the decision that a new front door is right for you – due to a draught, weather damage, or purely for aesthetic reasons – then let us explain the costs involved.

<strong>Cost factor one: the material</strong>

<a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors/upvc-entrance-doors-buckinghamshire"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6220" src="http://jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1-300x178.jpg" alt="double glazing gerrards cross" width="300" height="178" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1-300x178.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1-1024x609.jpg 1024w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1-768x456.jpg 768w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1-1536x913.jpg 1536w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Urban-Augusta-Situ-1-1-1.jpg 1600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />uPVC</a>: This material is recognised as the most affordable when it comes to making a front door. Not only does this make it an attractive option, but your uPVC front door can be made in a wide variety of colours, including a wood-effect if you have a traditional property and want the appearance of timber but the reliability of uPVC. Your <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors/upvc-entrance-doors-buckinghamshire">uPVC front door</a> is also very easy to maintain, being wipe-clean, and can have an energy efficiency of up to A+.

Timber: If you do not want wood-effect, but the real thing, then timber may be the option for you. A timber door can add a sense of grandeur to your property. They also offer good energy efficiency and will be long-lasting, but all of this comes at a cost so be aware that it is the highest-priced front door due to the materials and specialist installation process.

Composite: At Jack of Glass, we most frequently find our High Wycombe customers choosing composite doors as their front door of choice. Our composite doors are made of a combination of a solid timber core with a GRP (glass reinforced plastic) skin. As such, they provide many benefits, like having the highest level of energy efficiency and they also offer you a high level of security due to their solid structure. The GRP skin can be tailored to the colour of your choice and is effective at withstanding accidental damage: all 3.8mm of the skin (one of the thickest on the market) is made in your desired colour, so a scratch or knock would not leave you with an unsightly mark.

<strong>Cost factor two: accessories and features </strong>

<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6121" src="http://jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-300x300.jpg" alt="Grey Composite Doors Chesham" width="300" height="300" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-768x768.jpg 768w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-400x400.jpg 400w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-75x75.jpg 75w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham-460x460.jpg 460w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Grey-Composite-Doors-Chesham.jpg 850w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />We can offer you many upgrades to enhance your door, be these for security purposes or for appearance. For example, you can tailor the colour of any of the above materials to suit your home. You might also consider upgrading to stainless steel ironmongery for your handles or letterplates. We also have a wide range of glass options, depending on how much light you wish your door to let into your property.

<strong>Cost factor three: the size</strong>

The cost of your door will of course be dependent on the size of the front door that you need. As you may expect, the bigger the size of the door correlates to the cost of the door and installation. This may also include such factors as sidescreens and flag windows. Every door is made-to-measure to ensure it is the perfect fit for your home.

Whichever door you choose, keep in mind the cost will also include the amount of time, skill and effort that the door will take to fit, and this is dependent upon the property type the door is being fitted into. For your peace of mind, each one of our doors comes with a <a href="https://www.fensa.org.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">10-year insurance-backed guarantee</a> as standard. <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors/composite-doors-buckinghamshire">Why not get a free quote today</a>?<p>The post <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/2022/02/14/how-much-will-a-front-door-cost-in-2022/">How much will a front door cost in 2022?</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk">Double Glazing High Wycombe | uPVC Windows and Doors</a>.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[At Jack of Glass, we often get many enquiries from customers asking us whether our patio doors or bifolds would be better for their property. We have fitted many of both styles throughout Buckinghamshire. Therefore, to help you become better informed to make the right choice for your property, read on…

<strong>Similarities</strong>

<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6229" src="http://jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bifold-Door-Installation-300x150.jpg" alt="gerrards cross bifold doors" width="300" height="150" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bifold-Door-Installation-300x150.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bifold-Door-Installation-768x383.jpg 768w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Bifold-Door-Installation.jpg 850w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />When it comes to replacing your back doors, both styles let in lots of natural light &#8211; making the most of every hour of daylight &#8211; and both can be easily fitted into most properties. This also isn’t about a cost difference – aluminium patio doors and aluminium bifolds are of a similar price. Furthermore, there is no need to be concerned about choosing a certain style because it offers more security: bifolds and sliding patio doors both offer a high level of security, being fitted with advanced locking mechanisms as standard. This includes the latest multi-point locking systems and toughened glazing for your total reassurance. Our bifolds and patio doors are equally thermally efficient and have low U values, to both be cost effective options. Both styles offer a quiet operation to make either a great choice for when wanting to enjoy an evening without the concern of waking children or disturbing neighbours.

What the difference predominantly comes down to is how both styles operate and, as such, which better suits your needs.
<strong>Bifolds</strong>
At Jack of Glass, we are pleased to offer our High Wycombe customers <a href="https://www.smartsystems.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Smart Systems</a> Bifolds. They neatly concertina in a fluid motion to seamlessly help you connect your room to your outdoor space. When fully open, they will give your property the illusion of having much greater space, working for smaller and larger properties alike. Additionally, if you wish to have a master door to work in the same way as a back door, then this can be done for you if you order an odd number of leaves for your bifolds. Our stylish bifolds are made with strength and durability in mind and would be an asset to your home.

<strong>Patio doors</strong>
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6231" src="http://jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Screen-Shot-2015-06-23-at-11.57.06-300x243.png" alt="aluminium doors gerrards cross" width="300" height="243" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Screen-Shot-2015-06-23-at-11.57.06-300x243.png 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Screen-Shot-2015-06-23-at-11.57.06.png 381w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />Our Smart Systems sliding patio doors are the perfect choice for you to benefit from uninterrupted views of your home’s exterior – whether that’s your garden or one of the many wonderful views that High Wycombe has to offer. Because they don’t have the same concertina as a bifold, they are an ideal choice where space is restricted. Their smooth sliding tracks ensure effortless opening and closing each time. The incredibly thin sightlines of sliding patio doors are the choice for you if you’re looking to bring a sleek, contemporary look to your property, whilst ensuring minimal disruption to the view when you have the door closed. They are a fabulous product.<p>The post <a href="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/2021/10/28/patio-doors-or-bifolds-what-really-is-the-difference/">Patio doors or Bifolds?

When it comes to replacing your front door, there are many factors to consider. Not only will you be enhancing the look of your property, but you also have the chance to improve the security, thermal efficiency and accessibility of your home.

Deciding on which front door to have installed isn’t always easy as there are lots of factors to consider. The first and potentially most important is which material your new door will be manufactured using. Our suppliers, <a href="https://emplas.co.uk/">Emplas</a> use only the highest-quality materials to manufacture our <a href="/doors/upvc-entrance-doors-buckinghamshire">uPVC</a> and <a href="/doors/composite-doors-buckinghamshire">Composite Doors</a>.

Composite doors offer a remarkably authentic-looking wooden finish and an impressively strong structure. This is achieved using a combination of different materials which are pressed and glued together under high-pressure conditions. The other popular choice for replacing your front door is to opt for a uPVC profile. In comparison to other materials like timber and aluminium, uPVC is generally lower in cost and offers some great benefits including easy maintenance, durability and versatility.
<h2>1. Considering Your Budget</h2>
We understand that all of our customers have a different budget when it comes to buying a new front door. With this in mind, we want to remind those looking for a new front door that choosing the cheapest option probably won’t be the best option. At Jack of Glass, we believe that upgrading your front door should be seen as an investment.

uPVC is usually the lowest cost option when compared to other door materials as it is much cheaper to manufacture. Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride, which is the full name of uPVC, is a type of plastic that’s tough and hasn’t had any additives inserted when manufactured. It’s the most popular choice of material for UK homeowners because of its low-price tag.

For customers that have a higher budget for their replacement door, composite doors are constructed using more sophisticated and costly materials. If you choose to make the extra investment in a composite front door, it could last for up to 35 years, compared to the maximum lifetime of 20 years for uPVC doors.
<h2>2. Which Style Suits Your Home</h2>
Letting your taste show in your style of front door can transform the entrance to your home. The functionality and design is important when choosing the right front door, uPVC doors are more limited due to being made from a singular material. Composite doors offer a much more versatile and flexible design with a whole host of colours, glazing options and finishes with an authentic timber look.

In terms of door furniture, there’s no difference – simply select the handle, letterbox and knocker which is best suited to your home and taste. You can also choose from a wide range of glass options for your new uPVC or Composite front door.
<h2>3. Securing Your Home</h2>
When you are choosing the right front door, security plays a very important part. By comparing Composite Doors and uPVC Doors security benefits,  it is clear that they each offer unique features that make them secure.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that UPVC doors are not secure just because they are cheaper. Their galvanised steel core and multi-point locks combine to create an extremely strong front door. Although uPVC front doors easily meet modern security standards, Composite doors will offer customers an extra level of protection. Depending on the level of security you feel that your home will need, you may be more inclined to choose one of our composite doors.<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-5186 alignright" src="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors-300x200.jpg" alt="choosing front door prices" width="300" height="200" srcset="https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors-768x511.jpg 768w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/upvc-front-doors.jpg 1600w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />
<h2>4. Creating a Thermally Efficient Home</h2>
As well as weatherproofing your home against the harshest of elements, all uPVC entrance doors from Jack of Glass can provide high levels of insulation consistently. The enhanced insulation even allows for improved soundproofing, a particular benefit to those living alongside busy residential roads.

Our Composite doors are constructed to offer vastly enhanced door ratings because of the solid foam or compressed hardwood cores which have excellent thermal properties. The rebated frames installed during the manufacturing process and superior draught sealing all but eliminate draughts for your home.
<h2>5. Enjoy Maintenance and Longevity</h2>
When choosing your new front door, we understand that the level of maintenance required will play a big part in whether it will a suitable replacement. Homeowners often don’t want a door that will need to be re-painted or treated regularly. Opting for either a uPVC or Composite door will mean that minimum upkeep is necessary. Both of these materials are very resistant to the elements and require only a wipe with a damp cloth to keep them looking good as new.

As with every significant home improvement, choosing a new front door requires a lot of thought and consideration. The price will always play an important part in the final decision, but so should your personal preference.

While composite doors come at a higher price than uPVC, it’s worth bearing in mind the energy savings, reduced risk of burglary and customisation options might offset the price in the long-term. It’s also worth considering the effect higher quality front door may have on the price of your property should you decide to sell.

If one of our Composite front doors seems to be out of your budget, finance options are available with Jack of Glass, just get in touch for more information. Thankfully, no matter which material you choose, you won’t have to compromise on function over style – as both will transform and modernise the look of any home.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[It’s that exciting time of the year again, where Christmas is just around the corner, but that also means that the weather outside has become substantially colder. For the unprepared, this comes with the risk of your home becoming unbearably cold. Luckily, there are a number of ways to avoid the heat loss associated with the winter chill, and we at Jack of Glass happen to be experts on the matter.

<figure id="attachment_442" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-442" style="width: 300px" class="wp-caption alignright"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-442" src="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Rosewood-uPVC-Window-300x300.jpg" alt="Rosewood uPVC casement window" width="300" height="300" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-442" class="wp-caption-text">Rosewood uPVC casement window</figcaption></figure>
<h2>Installing double-glazed windows to combat the cold</h2>
One of the biggest factors determining whether your house will feel the cold this winter is whether or not your <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/windows">windows</a> have <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/windows/double-glazing">double glazing</a>. Double glazing is when your windows utilise two panes of glass as opposed to just one. Argon gas is present between the two panes of glass which helps create a barrier against the cold. Heat normally travels through glass with ease, which is where a regular window fails. Argon gas traps this heat as it tries to leave, resulting in far less heat being lost overall and less money being spent on your heating bill.

Jack of Glass offers double glazing for both <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/windows/aluminium-windows">aluminium</a> and <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/windows/upvc-windows">uPVC</a> windows, and there are multiple <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/glass/glazing">glazing options</a> available. Things like textured glass options can be selected and we also stock almost any type of glass you can think of. Improved thermal efficiency isn’t the only benefit of double glazing, you’ll also have improved sound insulation, better security, and no condensation or draughts.
<h2>Insulation within the home</h2>
Another way to reduce the heat loss within your home this winter is to make sure your home is insulated. The previously mentioned double glazing is just one way of insulating your home, but you can also insulate your walls, roof, and floor. Insulation is the act of utilising a material that stops heat from escaping and cold from entering. To insulate your walls and reduce heat loss, you can install cavity wall insulation, which is a method that involves placing insulating material between the brick and the inside wall. The reduced air circulation results in minimised heat loss through your walls.

You can reduce the heat lost through your roof by insulating the ceiling of your loft. Many houses already have loft insulation but if yours doesn’t, you’ll definitely wish you’d done it sooner. It’s relatively easy to insulate your loft by yourself by using rolls of mineral wool insulation. Heat tends to rise upwards, so having something in place that stops it from leaving your home will make all the difference this winter.

<h2>Replacing your doors</h2>
You might not have known this, but your <a href="http://www.jackofglass.co.uk/doors">doors</a> can actually be one of the biggest culprits in affecting the temperature of your home.
