    Beading alternative for kitchen units?

    Hi, We’ve just had a new kitchen installed, but aren’t sure the best route forward in terms of beading. This has been our first project so we have unfortunately learnt a lot of things too late. We ended up getting the flooring (laminate) put in after the kitchen was fitted, but the fitter has...

    Divide existing single uPVC window into 2 panels, one glass, one infill panel for cat flap

    I'd like to put a catflap into a tall, narrow double-glazed window (300mm x 1800mm), but the window isn't wide enough for a new glass panel with circular cutout for cat flap adapter. The next best solution would be to divide the window into 2 panels. a 300mm x 300mm infill panel at the bottom...

    Cutting uPVC beading

    I have replaced quite a few of my misted sealed units over the past year or two but one or two of the beads could do with replacing as well. I have sourced some of the correct beading - it’s internal, rounded beading for Rehau frames. I’d originally thought cutting the 45 degree ends would...

    Floor trim beading, can't get angle right

    I have some floor trim/beading to go around my new laminate floor, but I'm struggling to get a nice 45° degree angle. I have a mitre saw which has 45° setting but the trim is not flat so I can't get the angle to be flush. Skotia edge by barnsley7 posted 8 Dec 2019 at 3:18 PM Skotia trim by...

    Cant remove old upvc door beading

    Hi, I am trying to remove a broken glass panel in a upvc door. I researched from other posters and purchased a chisel knife and a mallet. Trying to get under the beading is making a mess of the beading. IMG_20190930_121857_compress65 by Jenson7 posted 30 Sep 2019 at 3:54 PM Here are photos...

    Beading Timber Frame Window

    When you bead a single pane window from the outside, do you bead tight to the glass or do you leave a gap and fill will putty?

    Getting hold of Plastmo bead

    Hiya, I had to use extreme prejudice to remove a bead from a window and left a bunch of unsightly gouges in it, so - if possible - I'd like to replace it. The bead itself has a time and date stamped in it, as well as "6036717 PLASTMO UK BS7413 2002" which I assume is the model number...

    UPVC Door beading problem

    hey, So the heat has hit my front door and the beadings popped out. It wouldn't go back in so I stupidly cut it down to size and now it just falls out. I tried to identify the door, frame, locks etc but couldn't find anything about the door itself. The locks are FUHR, the hinges trojan but...

    Hi All, I am hoping that somebody may be able to identify the UPVC window beading and provide me with the make/model and even a supplier as I have acquired some decent frames from my neighbour but the installers of their new units forgot to save all the beading for me. Any help would be greatly...

    Front door back-to-front?

    Just had a new stylish oak front door fitted and the beading for the windows is on the outside. Is this right as it seems a bit odd despite the supplier saying it is ok and that it has been fitted correctly. Door also has "face" stickers on the outside of the glass. See pictures below...
