What is the price of security glass for home windows in Pembroke Dock?
Our guide range for security glass for home windows in Pembroke Dock is £162 to £474 including VAT (£135 to £395 plus VAT) per window, including fitting. The survey is free for new installations and your fixed price follows in writing.
Security glass for home windows means replacing the glass in your existing frames with laminated glass or sealed units that have a laminated pane. The windows look and open exactly as before, but breaking the glass becomes a slow, noisy job rather than a quick way into the house.
What you can specify
- Works with uPVC, aluminium and timber frames
- Security tape or clips on externally beaded windows
- Laminated inner pane in new sealed units
- Frames, handles and locks left in place
- Same overall thickness as your current units where possible
- Low-E glass and argon to keep rooms warm
Fitting in Pembroke Dock
We arrange surveys and fitting in Pembroke Dock and across the SA72 postcode district. Tell us your postcode and we will offer dates.
Dyfed covers the town-centre shops of Carmarthen and Llanelli, the university town of Aberystwyth, and Pembrokeshire harbour towns such as Tenby, with exposed properties along the west coast.
This glazing suits:
- Bungalows, where every window is at ground level
- Flats on walkways and balconies
- Basement and lower-ground windows
- Windows beside flat roofs, porches and extensions
Questions we will ask at the survey
Keep or replace frames
If the frames are sound, new glass is the cheaper upgrade. If they are failing, we will tell you so you can compare with new windows.
Beads inside or out
Externally beaded windows can have the glass removed from outside. We fit security tape or clips so that route is closed.
Building regulations and safety in Wales
Replacing glass in an existing frame
Welsh Government guidance says building regulations have applied to replacement glazing since 1 April 2002, which covers replacing windows and doors. Swapping only the glass or a sealed unit in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair. New glass in a critical location should still be safety glass, and the council's building control team can confirm anything unclear.
Windows needed for escape
Approved Document B for Wales sets out escape window provisions for homes broadly in line with England's, including minimum clear opening sizes and a maximum sill height. New glass does not change those, but locks, secondary glazing and film must leave an escape window able to open. Laminated glass is not designed to be broken out.

Security glass for home windows in Pembroke Dock: questions
Do you cover Haverfordwest as well as Pembroke Dock?
Yes. As well as Pembroke Dock, we can arrange work in nearby Haverfordwest. Dates depend on installer availability.
Do I need new windows to get security glass?
No. If your frames are in good condition, we replace just the glass with laminated units made to fit them.
Will security glass make my home warmer or colder?
Choosing low-E glass, argon fill and warm-edge spacers usually matches or beats older units, so most people notice no change or an improvement.
Does replacing the glass need building regulations approval?
Replacing glass in an existing frame is generally treated as a repair. Replacing whole windows is controlled work: notifiable in England and Wales, and in Scotland and Northern Ireland the council's building control can say whether approval is needed. New glass in a critical location should still be safety glass.
