How easy are the roof kits to install?

All of The Glazing Shop’s roof kits have been designed to be installed by anybody with some DIY skills. All kits have Assembly Instructions in the Brochures area of the site. You will generally need two people to install the roof kits and some "setting out" may be required. If you are in any doubt then please either contact a qualified builder or call the Sales Office on 01536 446395.

Can you do custom sizes of roofing kits?

All our roof kits are modular so this is possible. Contact our sales advisors for a quotation.

What Glazing Bars systems do you offer?

We offer rafter supported glazing bars and self support glazing bars. Rafter bars are designed to sit on a framework e.g wooden rafters and the bars get their support from these. Self support glazing bars are just as described. They are stronger structurally, so no framework is required along the length of the bars.

Are there different types of Rafter bars?

We supply PVC snap down rafter bars and aluminium screw down rafter bars. PVC capped bars suit specific glazing thicknesses e.g 10mm, 16mm, 25mm,  32mm & 35mm. They are suitable for polycarbonate but are not suitable for glass.

Screw down aluminium glazing bars suit all glazing thicknesses and are designed for use with polycarbonate and glass.

Which of your glazing bars are suitable for polycarbonate?

All of our glazing bars are suitable for polycarbonate roofs.

Which of your glazing bars are suitable for glass?

Our screw down aluminium glazing bars are suitable for glass on rafter supported roofs. 
Our self supporting glazing bars are suitable for 16mm and 24mm glass units.

Do all of your roofing products need to be bought individually or can you supply complete kits?

Some products are available to order in kits straight from the site, like our Lean To roof kits. 
We can also put a kit together for you with all you need for a rafter supported roof. Just get in touch with the sizes you require and we will work out what you need and put together a quotation for a complete kit for you.

Do I have to order online?

Not if you don’t want to! Ordering online is easy through our website but if you prefer to talk to a human please give us a call on 01536 446395 and we can take the order from you over the phone.
