Before the glass is ordered

Match or upgrade

Like-for-like keeps the facade consistent. Upgrading to laminated or safety glass is often worth it at ground level.

Coated glass matching

Older solar control glass may no longer be made. We source the closest match and tell you if it will look slightly different.

Glazing rules in England

Fire-rated glass is different

Glass in fire doors, fire screens and protected escape routes has to be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen system, under Approved Document B and the fire safety duties of the building's responsible person. Laminated and security glass are not fire-rated unless the product says so. Where a pane needs both fire and security performance, it must be a product tested for both.

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.
