Getting the right glass for your building
Insurer conditions
Insurers may set conditions for high-value items. Share their wording so the case meets it.
Locks and hinges
Strong glass behind a weak lock is no upgrade. We check and upgrade locks at the same time.
What the rules say in England
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.
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.

Display case security glass in Newcastle upon Tyne: questions
Do you cover Gateshead as well as Newcastle upon Tyne?
Yes. As well as Newcastle upon Tyne, we can arrange surveys in nearby Gateshead, Felling and Wallsend. Dates depend on installer availability.
Can you reglaze our existing display cases?
Usually. We measure each panel and fit laminated glass to the existing case if the frame and fixings are sound.
Will laminated glass cut UV on displayed items?
Laminated glass blocks most UV light, which helps reduce fading of fabrics, papers and labels.
Does anti-reflective glass make a difference?
Under spotlights, yes. It reduces reflections so items can be seen clearly from more angles.
