			<![CDATA[Can anyone point me to an off-the-peg supplier of beading suitable for retro-fitting double glazed units into a timber external door?  Tried a google search with little success.  Needs to be available in small quanities and presumably L-shaped in cross section.  It must surely be a better option than replacing a well fitting 80-year old M&T door in excellent condition.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Jon]]>

			<![CDATA[I'm just re-installing dg units into timber frames.  Glazier fitted them with putty!  I'm using 3mm double-sided foam tape on the inside.  On fixed windows, I've deepened the rebates, on openers, I planted on a 6mm thick timber section.  But I couldn't buy the chunky beading I wanted, so I've made my own from 100mm x 20mm skirting board.  Jewsons stock section like you suggest, so do Focus.]]>

			<![CDATA[Any decent timber supplier will have 2.4m lengths of 12 x 15mm softwood or hardwood in their beading rack already bevelled to 15 degrees.   It's called glazing bead or wedge.]]>

			<![CDATA[Belated thanks for the advice.  I got overtaken by other jobs so haven't done it yet.  Planting on the 6mm timber section sounds like it should work for my shallow rebates - will try to remember to let you know how it goes.<br /><br />Jon]]>
