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.
Glass and fitting options
- Laminated inner pane with toughened outer pane
- Clear, obscure and decorative designs
- Laminated backing for leaded and bevelled panels
- Internal beads or security tape so glass is much harder to remove from outside
- Composite door cassettes where available
- Safety glass suitable for critical locations

Thumb-turns and keys
Laminated glass makes reaching a thumb-turn far harder. Keeping keys away from the door helps too.
Keep the design
Most decorative glass can be copied or rebuilt with a laminated backing pane, so the door looks the same.
Glazing rules in Wales
Safety glass in critical locations
In Wales, safety glazing is covered by Approved Document N (glazing) under the Welsh Building Regulations rather than Approved Document K. Glass in doors up to 1,500 mm above the floor, in panes within 300 mm of a door up to 1,500 mm, and in other glazing below 800 mm should be safety glass or protected. Laminated and toughened glass are the usual choices.
Security rules for new homes
Wales introduced its own Approved Document Q for new homes, in force from 1 November 2018, and it applies to newly erected dwellings only. It follows a similar approach to England's, with PAS 24 referenced for easily accessible doors and windows and laminated glass to BS EN 356 P1A in doors and nearby windows. It does not apply to changing the glass in an existing home.

Security glass for doors in Haverfordwest: questions
Do you cover Pembroke Dock as well as Haverfordwest?
Yes. As well as Haverfordwest, we can arrange work in nearby Pembroke Dock. Dates depend on installer availability.
Does door glass have to be safety glass?
Yes. Glass in doors up to 1,500 mm from the floor, and in side panels within 300 mm of the door edge, counts as a critical location and needs safety glass or protection.
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.
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.
