He needs a split spindle... era make one

Sorry I can't tell from the pictures... Crank might be able to though, he's seen most profiles

I'm not saying it's not possible , just be prepared for issues

You may find that the door will need to be removed as the hinges will probably not sit in the same place and you could potentially end up with a lot of ' binding' , I would gey that broken centre one first to see . The other problem is the weight of the glass will cause the door to move as soon...

Have you got the same hinges as existing? If so I'd replace the hinges , then check toe and heel

Would need a size and whether it's double or triple glazed before we could even contemplate a price lol

No the thickness won't determine if its double or triple , as they do triple and double glazed in both 24mm and 28mm units BUT when you remove the beads , if you take the unit out you'll be able to see if there is 3 panes of glass or two ( I suspect 3 looking at the pictures but hard to be 100%...

6 and 8mm bar are hard to distinguish between in a photo lol

I stand corrected lol

As Wayners is alluding to the sealed unit had ' broken down ' the dessicant ( not quite the same as silica gel but is a good way to explain it ) within the spacer bar has become saturated and no longer removes any moisture getting into the unit, and thus you get the condensation, starts of as a...

Should add actually, you could remove the handle too , you might be able to get a flat edge down the side of the barrel, once it's unscrewed , and force the cam.round as you turn the key

I'm going to agree with Crank here , sounds very much like the actual barrel is faulty. It is possible to get new items that are faulty , happens a lot on cars would you believe ( don't ask how I know lol ). Looks like you've tried the ways I would , which is unscrew the retaining screw and...

Personally I wouldn't use plywood , firstly op had never mentioned whether light is needed or not....I suspect it would be advantageous. I also wouldn't use Georgian wire ...hate the look of the stuff. If there is a need for fire rated glass ( blocks of flats and the like ) , I'd use 7mm...

In answer to the original question, depends how thick your sealed units are. I'm pretty sure that integral blinds have to go in 28mm sealed units

Might just be able to turn them round

Look up how to toe and heel a door also You say they were open in and you've turned them around... what have you done about the built in drainage? A upvc frame is cellular and the outer section is for drainage , you should really block all drain holes up internally( I hope it was face drain...

If it's just height you need then no you don't need to remove the cover , just adjust the back Allen bolt. However if you look at the door and notice that the leading edge of the door is lower at the top than the hinge edge , then you will need to access behind the covers of the top and bottom...

Georgian wire cast ( obscure) is no longer deemed a safety glass and there is a shortage in the UK presently . To be honest toughened glass is your cheapest option ,would have to be ordered to the correct size though as once toughened you can't cut it. Laminate is good if you get 6.4 ( or 6.8...

Just remember full compression isn't made until locking mechanism is fully engaged. Eg handle pulled up
