It can take as little as 10 minutes to install a EVS Glazing panel, compared to over three hours to retro glaze a traditional double glazing panel

EVS installation is very quick and simple and provides a professional finish that can be painted to match the surrounding timber. The EVS kits can be assembled onto a glazing panel that best suits the customers requirements then using a clip bead system the panel can be positioned then fixed with screws then clipped and sealed for a permanent fixing.
