Yes. We supply all types of glass unit, including Georgian bar, lead square and diamond designs, and a wide range of obscure patterns to match your existing units.

Doors can drop over time, which makes them catch at the bottom. It also means the locking mechanism no longer lines up with the keeps in the frame, so the door is harder to lock and you have to force the handle up.

The lock can fail completely, which costs more to put right. If that has already happened, we can get the door open and replace the whole lock.
