Security glass for doors in Andover

What is the price of security glass for doors in Andover?

Guide prices for security glass for doors in Andover are £150 to £510 including VAT (£125 to £425 plus VAT) per door for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before any glass is ordered.

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

Internal beads or security tape so glass is much harder to remove from outside
Laminated inner pane with toughened outer pane
Safety glass suitable for critical locations
Glass for side panels and fanlights beside the door
Composite door cassettes where available
Laminated backing for leaded and bevelled panels

Kitchen and utility doors onto the garden

Questions we will ask at the survey

Thumb-turns and keys

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

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.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Fire-rated glass is different

Glass in fire doors, fire screens and protected escape routes has to be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen system, under Approved Document B and the fire safety duties of the building's responsible person. Laminated and security glass are not fire-rated unless the product says so. Where a pane needs both fire and security performance, it must be a product tested for both.

Replacing glass in an existing frame

Replacing only the glass or sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair in England rather than notifiable building work. Replacing a whole window or door is notifiable and is normally certified through a competent person scheme or approved by building control. Either way, new glass in a critical location should still be safety glass.

Security glass for doors in Andover: questions

Do you cover Winchester as well as Andover?

Yes. As well as Andover, we can arrange surveys in nearby Winchester, Newbury and Salisbury. 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.
