Fitting in Kidsgrove and nearby

Kidsgrove is about 6 miles from Stoke-on-Trent, the main centre for Staffordshire. We can survey and fit across the ST7 district and in nearby places such as Congleton and Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Staffordshire mixes Stoke-on-Trent's Victorian pottery-town terraces with Lichfield's cathedral quarter, Burton's brewery streets and newer estates around Tamworth and Cannock.

This glazing suits:

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

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.

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 England

England

Security rules for new homes

Approved Document Q has applied to new homes in England since 1 October 2015. Easily accessible doors and windows, meaning any part within 2 m vertically of the ground or another accessible surface, should meet PAS 24 or an equivalent, and glazing in doors and in windows within 400 mm of a door should be laminated to at least BS EN 356 P1A. It does not apply when you change the glass in an existing home, although it is a sensible benchmark.

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 Kidsgrove: questions

Which areas near Kidsgrove do you cover?

We can arrange work in Kidsgrove and in nearby Congleton (5 miles), Newcastle-under-Lyme (6 miles) and Stoke-on-Trent (6 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

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.

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.
