What Are Georgian Bar Windows?

Georgian bars slot in between a window’s glazing. Because they are internal, the glass panes are flat on both sides. They create the illusion that a window is divided into sections and look similar to authentic period windows.

The authentic look of Georgian bars makes them popular in more traditional buildings, but many of these windows do not have the modern functionalities you demand. However, we are suppliers of modern windows that can meet these needs.

We have timber and UPVC designs available. It might seem tricky to choose, but our team can guide you through the decision-making process and help pick windows that suit your budget. For a free survey please contact us.

Our windows with Georgian bars prevent noise pollution and increase energy efficiency, without sacrificing on the traditional look. The Georgian bar windows we offer have the following features:

Eco-glazing

We maintain a commitment to the environment and our windows enhance energy efficiency. However, we take it further than that. We produce A-rated products that make use of eco-glazing, so you maximise your energy-savings and lower your carbon footprint.

Added privacy

Georgian bars are also useful for creating privacy as they limit the amount of glazing that is visible from the outside while still letting in plenty of natural light.

FAQs & Useful Information

What is a Georgian Bar Window?

What is an astragal bar?

Astragal bars are applied to a single piece of glazing, they go on top of one piece of glass. Georgian bars are internal to the glazing, they are sandwiched between two layers of glass.

How do Georgian bars fit?

Georgian bars fit in between the layers of glass in a double-glazed window. A manufacturer will fit the Georgian bars while producing the window.

Can You Add Georgian Bars to Windows?

No. It is very difficult to add Georgian bars to existing windows. As the Georgian bars fit in between layers of glass, the only way to add them to a window is to completely deconstruct it and install them. This is impractical, time-consuming and will produce an unattractive finish.
