Security glass for doors replaces the glazed panel in a front, back or side door with laminated safety glass, usually in a sealed unit with a toughened outer pane. It stops the common trick of breaking the glass to reach in and turn a key or thumb-turn left in the lock.

What you can specify

Safety glass suitable for critical locations
Composite door cassettes where available
Works with timber, uPVC, composite and aluminium doors
Clear, obscure and decorative designs
Laminated inner pane with toughened outer pane
Glass for side panels and fanlights beside the door

Fitting in Portadown and nearby

We arrange surveys and fitting in Portadown and across the BT62 postcode district, as well as in nearby Craigavon (3 miles) and Lurgan (5 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

County Armagh centres on Armagh's Georgian city, with the town-centre shops and older terraces of Portadown and Lurgan and rural villages across the orchard county.

This glazing suits:

Flat entrance doors with vision panels
Front doors with glazed side panels
Doors with a thumb-turn lock near the glass
Back and side doors with a large glazed panel

Questions we will ask at the survey

Side panels too

Side panels within 300 mm of the door are critical locations as well, and a weak side panel is an easy way in. We usually do both together.

Keep the design

Most decorative glass can be copied or rebuilt with a laminated backing pane, so the door looks the same.

Building regulations and safety in Northern Ireland

Northern Ireland

Security rules for new homes

If you are building a new home in Northern Ireland, ask the council's building control service which security requirements apply. In existing homes nothing obliges you to upgrade glass, but laminated glass to BS EN 356 P1A in doors and in windows beside them is a common benchmark taken from guidance in Great Britain.

Safety glass in critical locations

In Northern Ireland, safety glazing is covered by Part V of the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, with guidance in Technical Booklet V. It follows a critical-location approach similar to Great Britain, covering glazing in and beside doors and at low level. Laminated or toughened safety glass is the usual answer; building control at the council can confirm the detail.

Security glass for doors in Portadown: questions

Do you cover Craigavon as well as Portadown?

Yes. As well as Portadown, we can arrange surveys in nearby Craigavon, Lurgan and Banbridge. Dates depend on installer availability.

Can you replace glass in a composite door?

Often. Some composite doors take a standard unit; others use the maker's own cassette, which we source where possible.

Is toughened glass enough for a door?

It meets the safety rule but not the security need, because a broken toughened pane falls out. A laminated pane meets both.

Will new door glass affect my door's warranty?

If the door is still under its maker's warranty, check their terms first. We will tell you if the door needs the maker's own glass.
