How to replace glass on wood burner ?
Discussion
Very cleverly I have just gone and cracked the glass on the front of a Harmony 13 burner, I have ordered the replacement glass ( £46 ) and a new seal kit ( £13 ), now all I have to do is fit it.
Any tips or instructional videos ? any massive pitfalls I should avoid ? seems to be two panels of glass with sealant between the two not sure how the front panel is attached as the fire is still hot.
Any help or advise would be gratefully received.
Never done this or sure whats actually coming but the supplier of the woodburner where it was bought from, lovely bloke called fred has said I will have everything.

You shouldn't be so bashful, got the lot today and fixed in a jiffy.
Thanks for you pooter skills.
And for anyone else ever searching this topic and wants to know, main thing is you get the right seals, and you know if the kit your buying is for a double glazed door or single, my model came in both. Cost wise it was £46 for the glass, £13 for the seals VAT and delivery made it £80 and change. Press on the glass to squash the seal whilst screwing the clips down rather than using the screws to apply the pressure, don;t panic if the door doesn;t close first time, just keep tightening the screws slowly and you will get there.
