Anti-bandit glass is a heavy laminated glass built from several sheets and interlayers to resist a determined manual attack with tools. Under BS EN 356 it is classed P6B, P7B or P8B by how many hammer and axe strikes a machine needs to cut a 400 by 400 mm hole through it. The class belongs to the manufacturer's tested makeup, and their test evidence comes with your quote.

Getting the right glass for your building

P6B, P7B or P8B

P6B is the usual step up for high-value retail. P7B and P8B are chosen where a risk assessment or insurer points to a sustained, equipped attack.

Clarity

Thick laminates look green at the edge and slightly tinted in the face. Low-iron glass keeps displays looking true.

What the rules say in England

England

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.

Insurer requirements

Insurers set their own conditions for shops, offices, stock and cash, and some name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B in the policy wording. Ask for that wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we provide the glass manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.

Anti-bandit glass in Beverley: questions

Which areas near Beverley do you cover?

We can arrange work in Beverley and in nearby Hull (8 miles), Driffield (11 miles) and Bridlington (19 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Can anti-bandit glass go into my existing shopfront?

Sometimes. Many older shopfront frames are too shallow or too light for thick glass. We check the rebate depth, bead strength and fixings, and price new framing if the existing frame would be the weak point.

What is the difference between anti-bandit and laminated glass?

All anti-bandit glass is laminated, but not all laminated glass is anti-bandit. The term is used for the P6B to P8B classes, which resist hammer and axe attack rather than just a dropped weight.

Is anti-bandit glass the same as bullet-resistant glass?

No. Anti-bandit glass is tested against manual attack under BS EN 356. Bullet-resistant glass is tested against firearms under BS EN 1063, and is thicker and heavier again.
