Before the glass is ordered
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.
Glazing rules in England
Glazing in workplaces
Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 requires windows and transparent surfaces in walls, partitions, doors and gates to be of safety material or protected against breakage where health or safety makes that necessary, and to be marked so people notice them. The employer or the person in control of the premises decides what is needed through their risk assessment.
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.

Counter and reception security screens in South Ockendon: questions
Do you cover Grays as well as South Ockendon?
Yes. As well as South Ockendon, we can arrange surveys in nearby Grays, Hornchurch and Dartford. Dates depend on installer availability.
Can you add a screen to our existing counter?
Usually, if the counter is strong enough. We check its construction and include strengthening where needed.
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.
Do the trays weaken the screen?
They should not. Transaction trays are designed so there is no straight path through, and their level should match the glass.
