Questions from councils and public buildings
Can you quote to a written specification?
Yes. Send the specification or the adviser's requirements and we will quote against them, with manufacturer test evidence for rated glass.
Can you supply blast mitigation film?
Yes, where a threat assessment calls for it, with film and anchoring chosen to match the design.
Can work be phased?
Yes. Large jobs can be split into phases so parts of the building stay open.
Can glass be replaced after vandalism?
Yes, and it is often worth upgrading damaged panes to laminated glass at the same time.
