Re: Safety strip with logo on glassWindows & Doors

Jun 25, 2012 5:49 pm

Hi there We have just had delivered our new timber framed windows. These are large floor to ceiling and required a safety strip. Fine with that.... But shock horror the glazier has put their logo in all the little rectangles that form the safety strip!! To me this is just not on. Surely they can't ...

We brought our first load of furniture (mattresses x 2 and a portacot) over at 1.30pm, fridge & dishwash...
