Glazing Bead is Cracking

Question

The glazing bead in all of my windows are cracking. Do you carry this product? What would it take to replace? Do I need to hire someone or can I do it on my own. Thank you!

Hello! We carry a ton of different types of glazing bead, which you can see here. I'm confident we can supply you with a good match, but in order to identify what you need I'll require more information. Specifically, I'll need you to remove a sample from the window and show us a clear shot of the end profile. Knowing the size of the end profile will also be a huge help.

I know that your glazing bead is likely brittle and it will be difficult to remove an undamaged sample, but please try your best. If the sample is too broken up we won't be able to match it up to anything. Please make sure the cut is as clean and straight as possible. The cleaner the cut, the better able we will be to find a match.
