How it Works

Upgrading Existing Windows & Doors

The Sound Barrier System is an add-on glazing system installed on the inside of existing windows or glass doors, creating a double-glazed unit to reduce noise transmission. The advantages are that existing windows do not have to be replaced and window style is individually matched.

The air pocket created between the original window and the Sound Barrier System provides an insulating medium for both noise and thermal insulation. Both the original windows and the Sound Barrier System can be opened for cleaning and ventilation when outside noise is not excessive. Depending on factors such as the condition and design of the existing window frame, the Sound Barrier System can reduce noise transmission by up to 75%.

The Sound Barrier Double Window

The Sound Barrier Double Window is a double glazing system using award winning Australian designs in aluminium (Australian Design Award 1987). This system is suitable for use when the highest possible noise reduction is required or when existing windows and doors are in need of replacement.

The double system works in much the same way as the add on system, with the added benefit of an acoustically rated primary (outside) window and acoustic sealing of the entire unit to the building during installation. Depending on chosen configuration and glazing STC 40-50+ is provided.
