I need to replace some glass in my hallow wood back door. Could you please help. There are 4 panels of glass on the door
Hi, you know where the glass runs along the edges their should be some sort of beading that holds the glass in.
This is in 4 pieces and runs along the edge of the part where the glass is, they are usually nailed in with small tacks.
you know the edge of the glass nearest where the glass touches the door, the frame is usually rounded and tacked onto the actual door itself. Gently sanding the frame should reveal the tacks then gently pry off with thin screw driver. This can split but can be purchased for pennys just ask for window beading ok.
Once these are removed its best to use silicon or window bond when you put the new glass in as this will seal any leaks for water and will protect the glass from shock.
Then replace the beading but be gentle as you can break the new glass if you are to heavy handed.
Let me know how you get on ok
