Commercial reglazing is the replacement of glass in office facades, shopfronts, curtain walling and internal screens, whether it is damaged, misted, unsafe or being upgraded. It often involves large panes, access equipment and work planned around a building that stays open.

Getting the right glass for your building

Keeping the building open
Out-of-hours work and phased replacement keep disruption low.
What the rules say in England
Safety glass in critical locations
In England, section 5 of Approved Document K treats glazing in doors and in side panels within 300 mm of a door edge, from floor level up to 1,500 mm, and any other glazing below 800 mm, as a critical location. Glass there should break safely, be robust, or be guarded. Laminated or toughened glass meeting BS EN 12600 class 3 is the usual answer, rising to class 2 for door and side-panel panes wider than 900 mm.
Planning permission
Changing the glass in an existing window or shopfront does not usually need planning permission, because the building looks much the same afterwards. A new or altered shopfront, or security features added to the outside of a building, may need planning permission from the council. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need the highway authority's consent, which is normally the council.
