Security glazing for banks, post offices and bureaux de change

Cash counters need glass that protects staff without getting in the way of service. Counter screens, secure doors and, where the risk calls for it, bullet-resistant glazing are specified as a matched system, so the glass, frames, speech panels and trays all perform to the same level.

Where banks, post offices and bureaux de change are most exposed

  • Attacks on staff at the counter
  • Cash handed across transaction points
  • Glazed entrances and lobbies
  • Back offices and cash rooms

Glass that suits banks, post offices and bureaux de change

Points to plan for

  • The rating should come from a threat assessment, not a guess.
  • Frames, speech panels and trays must match the glass rating.
  • Counters and floors must carry the weight of heavy glass.
  • Plan installation around opening hours and cash handling.

Questions from banks, post offices and bureaux de change

Do all counters need bullet-resistant glass?

No. Many use laminated anti-bandit glass. Bullet-resistant glazing is specified where a threat assessment identifies a firearms risk.

Can an existing counter be fitted with a screen?

Often, yes, if the counter is strong enough to carry the screen. The survey checks the structure and fixing points.

Can we choose the speech panel and tray design?

Yes. Speech gaps, speech panels and deal trays come in several designs, chosen to suit how you serve customers.

Will you provide test evidence for the glass?

Yes. We quote glass and screens tested by the manufacturer to the stated class and send their evidence with the quote.
