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
- Obscure glass for bathrooms and landings
- Low-E glass and argon to keep rooms warm
- Frames, handles and locks left in place
- Toughened outer pane where safety glass is required
- Security tape or clips on externally beaded windows

- Basement and lower-ground windows
- Windows beside flat roofs, porches and extensions
- Flats on walkways and balconies
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
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 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 home windows in Pontypridd: questions
Do you cover Tonypandy as well as Pontypridd?
Yes. As well as Pontypridd, we can arrange surveys in nearby Tonypandy, Caerphilly and Rhondda. Dates depend on installer availability.
Can you match my obscure bathroom glass?
We can usually match common obscure patterns, or fit a laminated obscure glass with a similar look.
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.
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.
