The difference
Most heritage windows only look the part.
The industry bonds timber strips to a single sheet of glass, then shapes the beading to imitate putty. It passes at a glance. It doesn't pass up close.
Applied glazing bars
One continuous sheet of glass. The bars are bonded on — the panes aren't real.
True divided lights
Six separate panes, each bedded in linseed oil putty.
Why it matters
Councils accept it
Conservation guidance favours traditional putty and treats applied timber beads as unwelcome — often the difference between consent and refusal.
It can be repaired
Putty is renewed with a knife and a brush. A bonded bead cannot be repaired — when it lifts, it is replaced.
It looks right
A real bar casts a real shadow and breaks the reflection. Applied bars leave a flat, mirrored sheet — the reason new windows so often look wrong on an old house.
What we make
