- Using a rubber mallet and a strong pallet knife, remove the beading around the window. You might think they’re part of the frame, but they’re actually separate on the inside of the frame and can be taken out by using pallet knife to prize them out. Start with one of the longest beads first and leave the top bead until last.
- Give the glass a little tap to loosen it if it doesn’t come out straight away, then the whole unit should slide out easily. Just make sure it falls towards you and not back out onto the ground below!
- Clear any debris that has found its way into the frame with a brush. Add spacers at the bottom of the frame – these could be pieces of plastic.
- Get your new sealed unit (make sure you measure the glass before you buy one so you know which size to get) and carefully take it out of the packaging. Look for the British Standard mark – that shows you the bottom of the glass.
- Lift the glass into the frame, starting with the bottom first, and make sure that it fits square in the frame before taking the spacers out.
- Use a little washing up liquid to spread along the beads to make it easier when you slide them back into the frame. If they simply push and clip back in, you can use something like a block of wood to help you push them in correctly. Put them back in reverse order to how you took them out.
Padstow
Padstow is a town, civil parish as well as angling port on the north coast of Cornwall, England, UK. The community is situated on the west bank of the River Camel tidewater roughly 5 miles (8.0 kilometres) northwest of Wadebridge, 10 miles (16 km) northwest of Bodmin and 10 miles (16 kilometres) northeast of Newquay. The population of Padstow civil parish was 3,162 in the 2001 census, reducing to 2,993 at the 2011 census. Furthermore a selecting ward with the same name exists however prolongs as for Trevose Head. The population for this ward is 4,434. Commonly an angling port, Padstow is currently a prominent visitor location. Although several of its former fishing fleet continues to be, it is mostly a yacht haven on a remarkable coastline with few easily accessible harbours. The influence of restaurateur Rick Stein can be seen in the port, and travelers take a trip from cross countries to eat at his restaurant and cafés. This has resulted in the community being called "Padstein", by food authors in the British media. Nonetheless, the boom in the appeal of the port has triggered residence rate inflation both in the port as well as bordering locations, as people acquire residences to live in, or as 2nd or holiday houses. This has indicated significant numbers of residents can not afford to buy residential or commercial property in the area, with rates commonly well over 10 times the ordinary salary of around £ 15,000. This has actually resulted in a population decrease. Strategies to develop a skatepark in Padstow have been proposed and also funds are being raised to develop this at the Recreation Ground (Wheal Jubilee Parc).
