Swisspacer Duplex and Double Face Spacer Bar Systems
The Products
This is a single sealed unit but when glazed appears to be 4 smaller units. Note the 8 lengths of spacer bar inside the unit.
There are two Swisspacer systems designed to create the illusion of individual double glazed units where the manufacturer wants to add a profile to the outside of the glass to create a traditional Georgian effect window.
The duplex system comprises end keys and centres which allow the use of two lengths of spacer bar to be placed side by side with a small gap between. After fabrication, an external Georgian bar is fixed onto the outside of the glass on both sides over the spacer bar pair. This gives the illusion that multiple small sealed units have been used.
For the duplex key system normal Swisspacer bar or special unfoiled Swisspacer bar is used whereas the double faced system uses a special Swisspacer double faced bar.
Swiss Double Face Spacer also known as Swisspacer Georgian Bar is a special spacer which has two faces. Again, after fabrication, an external Georgian bar is fixed onto the outside of the glass on both sides over the spacer bar.
