Before the glass is ordered
Thumb-turns and keys
Laminated glass makes reaching a thumb-turn far harder. Keeping keys away from the door helps too.
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.
Glazing rules in Northern Ireland
Fire-rated glass is different
Glass in fire doors and fire screens must be fire-rated glass tested within that system, under Technical Booklet E and, for non-domestic premises, the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010. Security and laminated glass are not fire-rated unless the product is tested for it.
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.

Security glass for doors in Newry: questions
Do you cover Banbridge as well as Newry?
Yes. As well as Newry, we can arrange surveys in nearby Banbridge, Armagh and Portadown. Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
Can you keep my stained or leaded glass design?
Usually. We add a laminated pane behind the decorative glass inside the sealed unit, or have a matching unit made.
