(54) Improvements relating to glazing


(57) A method of fixing a panel piece (16) in a synthetic door is described. The method comprises the steps of:

forming a rebate in the door in the shape of the panel piece (16) to create a panel-shaped area; and

locating the panel piece (16) in the panel-shaped area.


With a rebate, the edge of the panel piece (16) is not therefore accessible from the non-recessed side of the door.
Preferably, one or more mounting pieces are located around the panel piece to assist mounting of the panel piece (16) within the panel-shaped area, and the mounting pieces are fixable to the door.
