The protection level is set by a risk assessment of the site.

Fitting in Telford and nearby

We can arrange counter and reception security screens across Telford, the main centre for Shropshire, and in nearby towns including Wellington, Bridgnorth and Shrewsbury.

Shropshire combines Shrewsbury's timber-framed and Georgian centre with Telford's modern town centre, business parks and estates, and hill-country towns such as Ludlow and Bridgnorth.

  • Bureaux de change and pawnbrokers
  • Bank, building society and post office counters
  • Hospital, GP and police front desks
  • Council and housing office receptions

What to think about first

Protection level

Choose laminated for deterrence, anti-bandit for tool attack or bullet-resistant where a threat assessment calls for it. Everything else is built to match.

Speech and accessibility

Speech panels, low-level sections and hearing loops make the counter usable for everyone.

Consents and safety: England

England

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.

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 Telford: questions

Which areas near Telford do you cover?

We can arrange work in Telford and in nearby Wellington (3 miles), Bridgnorth (10 miles) and Shrewsbury (13 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 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.

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.
