A counter security screen is a framed glass screen fitted along a counter or reception desk, with a speech panel and a transaction tray, so staff can serve people face to face while separated from them by laminated, anti-bandit or bullet-resistant glass. The protection level is set by a risk assessment of the site.

Questions we will ask at the survey
Counter structure
Heavy glass needs a strong counter top and fixings. We check before quoting and include strengthening if needed.
Continuity
Rated glass next to an unrated counter front or plasterboard wall leaves a gap. We protect the whole line.
Building regulations and safety 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.
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.

Counter and reception security screens in Brighton: questions
Which areas near Brighton do you cover?
We can arrange work in Brighton and in nearby Hove (1 mile), Portslade (3 miles) and Burgess Hill (9 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
Do counter screens need planning permission?
Internal screens do not normally need planning permission. In listed buildings, listed building consent may be needed for fixings into historic fabric.
What level of screen do we need?
That comes from your risk assessment, head office standards or insurer. Many receptions need laminated screens; cash-handling sites may need anti-bandit or bullet-resistant screens.
Can staff still hear customers through the screen?
Yes. Speech panels let sound pass while keeping the screen closed, and hearing loops help customers with hearing aids.
