Things to decide before you order
Counter structure
Heavy glass needs a strong counter top and fixings. We check before quoting and include strengthening if needed.
Speech and accessibility
Speech panels, low-level sections and hearing loops make the counter usable for everyone.
Rules that apply 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 Chorley: questions
Which areas near Chorley do you cover?
We can arrange work in Chorley and in nearby Leyland (4 miles), Darwen (7 miles) and Wigan (7 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
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.
