broken glass on uPVC french door - replace only glass or whole door?

river_kwai

I have a uPVC french door with a broken glass in one of its panel. It's a 2 panel door and the glass on the lower panel is broken. So my question is that how much would it cost to replace the glass or do I have to replace the whole door??? How much do these usually cost?

A Glass unit is about 60-80 pounds a new door is about 300 pounds
dont forget about house insurance

Is there a call out charge to get the glass replaced? Or is 60-80 pounds the price of all inclusive?

Insurance have excess of £150.

I just had a window and patio door replaced and had two quotes which were within £15 of each other. No call out charge.

If the first quote falls within the £60-80 bracket, save yourself the hassle and take it.

the glass will have to be toughened/ safety glass if in a patio/french door.

The call out measure up is free but the fitting might have a call out charge
already worked into the price, A unit is about £15 for the size of 45mm x 550mm so they already mark up the price.

Not forgetting a Bottom double glazed unit should be Toughened.
