How do I replace a single pane window in a metal frame?
I have already taken out the broken pieces, as well as the old grout or putty. I have looked online for detailed instructions and have been confused by instructions only to replace glass in wood frames. BTW, what are the points I keep reading about? My old window didn’t have them
I’m sure your old window had points, but got lost in the broken window and old putty.
Now that it is all clean, you take the measurements, and go to Lowes or Home Depot or any glass store for the glass window.
You can also buy a small packet of points there too.
They are sharp little tacks that you use to hold the glass in place, while you putty it in.
You might be right, points are only used in wood frames. So were right when you said their was none.
When you buy the glass, buy a can of putty, it’s right there, in the same store.
With metal frames, you need to take out the putty, roll it around in your hand, and make nice long roll of it. About as thick as your little finger. Then you squeeze that all around the metal frame. Be careful not to use too much putty. Just enough to sit the glass in the frame. Push it in, but be gentle, glass if fragile. If you can lay the frame flat, it will make the job easier.
Once the glass is in place, you repeat the rolling of the putty, and squeeze it all around the frame, the two sides, top and bottom.
To finish it off, you need a flat scraper or spatula device. You hold that at a 45 degree angle and work your way all around the frame, making a neat, as you can, smooth finish.
It’s not hard work, but you need to be careful and just take it step by step.
Good Luck.

Window Screen $66.91 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A window screen, insect screen or bug screen is a metal wire, fiberglass, or other synthetic fiber mesh, stretched in a frame of wood or metal, designed to cover the opening of an open window. Its primary purpose is to keep insects, leaves, debris, birds, and other animals from entering a building or a screened structure such as a porch, while permitting fresh airflow. Most houses in Australia, the United States and Canada have screens on all operable windows, which are most useful in areas that have large mosquito populations. Screens in North America were traditionally replaced with glass storm windows in cold climates to insulate the window during the winter, but frames combining both storm and screen panels have become the most common type of screen currently used in cold climates.
