What is a future unit?
We are the sole manufacturers of Future Units in Britain & Europe. Future units are triple glazed units fronted with traditional leaded lights, combining all the benefits of modern double glazing (extra security, heat insulation and reduced outside noise etc.) with the beauty and impact of authentic stained glass design
Taking clients' original glass where possible, and if not new glass, we incorporate this into a new treble glazed unit, retaining all the beauty and appearance of a traditional leaded light from the outside. The position of double glazing behind the leaded light prevents condensation and dust from gathering visibly inside units |
We differ from other companies in that most offering a similar service will use coloured film or paint in place of real glass. This does not give the same quality and depth of colour as our future units which are made with 100% traditional stained glass in a range of textures and colours
Where possible, we can clean up and incorporate customers' undamaged original glass into future units, transforming their authentic leaded lights into modern treble glazed units. With Tenby & Penny there is a lifetime guarantee on colour fading, cracking and shrinking, and our beautiful future units offer all the benefits of modern double glazing, whilst preserving the art of the authentic leaded light |

Industry experts
At Tenby & Penny we offer unrivalled industry knowledge and expertise, and own the British and European patents for our unique future units
Once a design is agreed upon with the client, the selected glass is individually cut and adhered to the facing glass, this is then joined with lead and solder and made into a triple glazed unit. These units can be installed into wood, aluminium or UPVC frames With a large collection of coloured and obscure glass at our disposal, In terms of leaded lights, there is no limit to what we can design and manufacture in our warehouse; we can even take a customer's old leaded light, strip and clean it, and transform it into a striking future unit |
Where other companies advertising a similar service rely on surface paints or film to colour their glass (a technique susceptible to cracking, fading and shrinking over time), at Tenby & Penny, we only ever use genuine stained glass for our coloured glass products. This means that not only do our traditional leaded lights and future units possess a superior depth of colour, but a life time guarantee on colour fading
