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

Expect £174 to £594 including VAT (£145 to £495 plus VAT) per pane for laminated security glass in Wiltshire. The written quote names the glass makeup, the price and the lead time before you commit.

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.

Glass and fitting options

  • Single panes or the inner or outer pane of a sealed unit
  • Clear, low-iron, tinted, obscure and acoustic versions
  • Edges sealed and glazed to suit timber, uPVC, aluminium and steel frames
  • 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
  • Blocks most UV light, which slows fading of furniture and stock

What to think about first

Clear or special glass

Low-iron glass removes the green tint on thick panes, acoustic interlayers cut road noise, and obscure versions give privacy for bathrooms and side panels.

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.

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.

Laminated security glass in Wiltshire: questions

Which towns in Wiltshire do you cover?

We can arrange work anywhere in Wiltshire, including Swindon, Salisbury, Trowbridge, Chippenham and Calne, and in other towns across the area.

Will laminated glass fit my existing windows?

Usually. A laminated pane or a sealed unit with a laminated inner pane is made to the same overall thickness as your current glass where the frame allows. We check rebate depth, beads and hinges first.

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.

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.
