Default removing double glazing sealed unit

Hi

I've foolishly bought a sofa that won't fit up my stairs, but would
fit through the 1st floor window...if there wasn't any glass in it.

So, I need to removed the sealed glazing unit.

Is it just a matter of getting something sharpish between the beading
and the frame and levering out the beading, or is there more to it
than that.

Also, if this is what's required is there anything "special" about the
procedure i.e. the order to remove the beading?

Also, as it's obviously quite a big unit, being sofa sized, I guess I
should hire a double suction holder thing?

thanks in advance.


The way I did mine and this was the advice of the window company I
bought from, was to take hold of the rubber seal and remove it before
trying to remove the beading. Makes things that much easier.
