Anti-ram-raid glazing in Surrey

What is the price of anti-ram-raid glazing in Surrey?

Typical prices for anti-ram-raid glazing in Surrey are £1,495 to £6,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £8,394 inc VAT) per shopfront, supplied and fitted. Use the quote tool for a guide figure, then we survey and confirm a fixed price.

Anti-ram-raid glazing is heavy laminated or anti-bandit glass fitted in strengthened, deeply rebated frames so that, if a vehicle or heavy tool hits the shopfront, the opening is not simply cleared. Glass and frames delay entry; stopping the vehicle itself needs bollards, posts or barriers in front of the shop.

Questions we will ask at the survey

New frame or upgraded frame

Existing shopfront frames are rarely strong enough. Strengthened or new framing is usually part of the job.

Consent for bollards

Bollards on the public highway need the highway authority's agreement, and forecourt barriers may need planning permission.

Building regulations and safety 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-ram-raid glazing in Surrey: questions

Which towns in Surrey do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Surrey, including Woking, Guildford, Esher, Redhill and Staines-upon-Thames, and in other towns across the area.

Should I move stock away from the window?

Yes. Keeping high-value stock away from the glass at night reduces the reward and complements the physical measures.

Do I need permission for bollards outside my shop?

Usually. Bollards on a public pavement need the highway authority's agreement, and forecourt barriers or new shopfront framing may need planning permission. We tell you what to check.

Can glass stop a ram raid?

No. Glass cannot stop a vehicle. Strong laminated glass in a strengthened frame delays entry after impact; bollards or barriers are what stop the vehicle reaching the glass.
