Security glass for doors in Kenilworth

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

Our guide range for security glass for doors in Kenilworth is £150 to £510 including VAT (£125 to £425 plus VAT) per door, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.

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

Clear, obscure and decorative designs
Laminated inner pane with toughened outer pane
Safety glass suitable for critical locations
Internal beads or security tape so glass is much harder to remove from outside
Works with timber, uPVC, composite and aluminium doors
Laminated backing for leaded and bevelled panels

Fitting in Kenilworth and nearby

From the CV8 district we also cover Warwick (5 miles) and Coventry (5 miles). Survey dates depend on installer availability.

Warwickshire has the listed timber-framed centres of Warwick and Stratford-upon-Avon, Regency terraces in Leamington Spa, and Nuneaton, Rugby and business parks near the M40 and M6.

This glazing suits:

Kitchen and utility doors onto the garden
Doors with a thumb-turn lock near the glass
Front doors with glazed side panels
Flat entrance doors with vision panels

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.
