Canberra is one of the coldest climates in Australia. It is a no brainer that we should be using double glazing. These blogs are designed to help the people of Canberra to understand the benefits of double glazing.
We have put together a virtual tour of our Design Studio so that you can have a look at the designs and styles available.
All of our windows and doors are double glazed and manufactured in Australia. We are a retailer and have access to the biggest range of windows and doors in Canberra. We have been selling double glazed windows and doors since 2006 so we are the most experienced specialist in Canberra.
Pop in and visit our team to learn more about what we can offer to your home or project.
Windows and doors have historically been just a product that you put in your home to let in light and ventilation. The aluminium that is still being used in new homes in Canberra is often single glazed and doesn't do much except for letting the light and air in. They don't contribute to saving you money on energy and they are often ugly and poorly put together.
The products that we sell at Solace Creations are designed to add beauty as well as functionality and air into your home. We custom design all of our windows and doors to your home whether it is a current home or if you are building a new home.
With over 11 years experience in the industry and a flair for design, we can make sure that your home is enhanced by our products.
The uPVC is UV stabilised, tested to the Australian Standard and made in Australia. We are not restricted to standard sizes or styles and can tailor your windows and doors specifically to your needs.
Our prices have become more competitive with aluminium and there are 30% less greenhouse gas emissions with uPVC frames and they are fully recyclable at the end of their life.
Before you purchase standard windows and doors, come in and see our beautiful range at 1/17 Townsville Street Fyshwick.

Over recent years, energy costs have risen in Australia to unprecedented levels, leaving home and business owners to foot increased utility bills.
Solace Creations Double Glazing along with our manufacturer - Twinglaze, noticed there was a gap in the market: a lack of cost effective and innovative retro-fit solutions for all existing residential improvements and renovations. For windows in particular, the energy insulation provided by the standard 3 mm glass in most homes is not sustainable anymore, resulting in inflated energy bills. Noise reduction is another serious challenge brought on by growing population levels and the increasingly urbanised environment that we call home these days.
TwinGlaze eco creates new possibilities for you to affordably retro-fit genuine double glazed replacement windows into your existing frames while still preserving the integrity, style and design of your household’s interiors and exteriors. This process is very economical compared to full window frame replacements. Installation is quick and easy, with the finished product providing you with all the incredible benefits of genuine double glazing, at a lower price.

TwinGlaze eco Installation Process
The installation process is very simple. Our consultants will conduct an initial review of your existing windows and doors, providing you with a list of suitable options from our range of double glazing solutions and recommending the most cost effective solution specific to your home. Of course, we offer this consultation for free.
At Solace Creations, we strongly believe this review to be the most critical part of the retro-fit process. Since every home is different, all our energy efficient, replacement double glazing windows need to be customised accordingly and an in-depth inspection will assist us with this.
The installation will be carried out by our nationally accredited technicians. Striving to become a top quality Australian manufacturer, TwinGlaze carefully produces all windows in our modern factory ensuring all items satisfy our high quality standards before being ready for fitting. The process of replacing your old, inefficient glazing is quick, simple and neat. As the final step, our team will fully clean up and dispose of your old glazing as we finish off the installation process.
