Rules that apply in England
Security rules for new homes
Approved Document Q has applied to new homes in England since 1 October 2015. Easily accessible doors and windows, meaning any part within 2 m vertically of the ground or another accessible surface, should meet PAS 24 or an equivalent, and glazing in doors and in windows within 400 mm of a door should be laminated to at least BS EN 356 P1A. It does not apply when you change the glass in an existing home, although it is a sensible benchmark.
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Replacing only the glass or sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair in England rather than notifiable building work. Replacing a whole window or door is notifiable and is normally certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control. Either way, new glass in a critical location should still be safety glass.
Glazing in workplaces
Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 requires windows and transparent surfaces in walls, partitions, doors and gates to be of safety material or protected against breakage where health or safety makes that necessary, and to be marked so people notice them. The employer or the person in control of the premises decides what is needed through their risk assessment.
Security glazing in Bicester: questions
Do you fit security glass in Bicester?
Yes. We can arrange surveys and fitting in Bicester and the OX26 area.
How much does security glass cost in Bicester?
Expect £162 to £474 including VAT (£135 to £395 plus VAT) per window for security glass for home windows in Bicester. The written quote names the glass makeup, the price and the lead time before you commit.
Can you survey in Bicester and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Bicester, Oxford and Banbury are booked around installer availability.
What is the difference between laminated and toughened glass?
Toughened glass is stronger but breaks into small pieces and leaves an open hole. Laminated glass cracks but stays in the frame, which is why it is the choice for security.
Can you work outside business hours?
Early or late slots can usually be arranged for shops and offices, subject to the installer's schedule.
