Things to decide before you order

Composite door glass

Some composite doors use a cassette made by the door's maker. We check whether a laminated version is available before quoting.

Thumb-turns and keys

Laminated glass makes reaching a thumb-turn far harder. Keeping keys away from the door helps too.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

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.

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 Magherafelt: questions

Which areas near Magherafelt do you cover?

We can arrange work in Magherafelt and in nearby Cookstown (10 miles), Ballymena (15 miles) and Antrim (16 miles). 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 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.

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.
