We are fully double glazed with internal glazing beads.
My upstairs fire escape precautions are a pound shop hammer and wood chisel. It only takes a minute or two to remove the beads with the chisel and escape onto the extension flattish roof and safety.
I've just changed the units in that window to clear glass so I know how quick it is. Was bathroom, now in process of being bedroomized. Any upstairs window will be the same here. I fitted them all.
