Hi,
Can you please help me identify the glazing type? Do you have these in stock, if so can you please send me a pointer?
Also, the glazing is made of metal

Thank you for your patience. I'm afraid that we don't have an exact match for this glazing bead, but one of our vinyl options may work. Can you tell me the size of the end profile? Those measurements will be a big help as we track down a good match. |
Hi Tom,
Let me re-measure the cross section with a vernier and update the thread this evening.
Thx,

That's ok! We find the aluminum glazing easily damaged when either removing it or installing on the glass. That is why we prefer vinyl for it's resistance and ability to bounce back in shape. Thank you for dimensions, and we believe we found a suitable replacement. Look and compare our 55-181 white vinyl snap-in with yours. See if either of these would make a good match. |

We do also offer a sample order program where you can order up to five samples of glazing for free, you would just be responsible for the shipping fee. To view our samples list, click here. |

My apologies. That was in fact a typo on my end. And as far as I can see with this thread, we will look into this and see if there is anything we need to fix on our end. Thank you. |

Hi there. The problem I see is the glass has slipped down about 3/8". Perhaps if you place rubber shims on the bottom to raise it, the 55-181 should work for you. Try that and let me know if this works. |

From your photo, I see the marking where the glass should be line up to the frame. That is why I thought your were missing the rubber shims to square up the glass so the snap-in glazing would work. When we were replacing insulated glass (while still working in the field), we would get rubber shims from the actual glass supplier. Unfortunately, we don't carry the rubber shims. See if you have some type of rubber or wood trim you can use as a shim or check your local hardware store to see if they have something you can use as a shim. |
