How much should I budget for laminated security glass in Brighouse?

As a guide, allow £174 to £594 including VAT (£145 to £495 plus VAT) per pane for laminated security glass in Brighouse, supplied and fitted. Size, glass makeup, access and frame condition move the price, which is confirmed in writing after the free survey.

Laminated security glass is made by bonding two or more sheets of glass to a plastic interlayer, usually PVB, under heat and pressure. When it is struck the glass cracks but the fragments stay stuck to the interlayer, so the pane keeps filling the opening and has to be attacked again and again before anyone can get through.

What goes into laminated security glass

  • Classes from P1A to P5A under BS EN 356, with heavier P6B to P8B options
  • Breaks safely, meeting impact classes used for critical locations
  • Blocks most UV light, which slows fading of furniture and stock
  • Clear, low-iron, tinted, obscure and acoustic versions
  • PVB interlayers from 0.38 mm to 1.52 mm, or stiffer ionoplast interlayers
  • Cut to size on site or in the factory, unlike toughened glass

Common uses:

  • Shop windows and glazed shop doors
  • Glazed doors where a thumb-turn lock sits behind the glass
  • Low-level glass in homes, schools and offices
  • Ground-floor windows that face a garden or alley

What to think about first

Frame and rebate depth

Thicker laminates need a deeper glazing rebate and stronger beads. We check what your frames will take before anything is ordered.

Single pane or sealed unit

In double glazing the laminated sheet is normally the inner pane, with a toughened outer pane where safety glass is needed. Single-glazed frames take a laminated pane on its own.

Insurer requirements

Insurers set their own conditions for shops, offices, stock and cash, and some name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B in the policy wording. Ask for that wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we provide the glass manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.

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.

Laminated security glass in Brighouse: questions

Can you survey in Brighouse and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Brighouse, Halifax and Cleckheaton are booked around installer availability.

Can laminated glass be cut to size?

Yes. Unlike toughened glass, laminated glass can be cut after it is made, which helps with odd shapes and quick replacements. The edges are finished and kept dry in the frame to protect the interlayer.

Does laminated glass stop burglars completely?

No glass makes a building impossible to enter. Laminated glass makes breaking in slow, noisy and hard work, which makes the building a much poorer target for an opportunist. Higher classes and stronger frames add more delay.

Is laminated glass the same as safety glass?

Laminated glass is one type of safety glass, because it breaks safely and stays in place. Toughened glass is the other common type. Only laminated glass also gives real resistance to someone trying to break through.
