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

Expect £174 to £594 including VAT (£145 to £495 plus VAT) per pane for laminated security glass in Salisbury. 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.

What goes into laminated security glass

  • Breaks safely, meeting impact classes used for critical locations
  • Edges sealed and glazed to suit timber, uPVC, aluminium and steel frames
  • Cut to size on site or in the factory, unlike toughened glass
  • Single panes or the inner or outer pane of a sealed unit
  • Blocks most UV light, which slows fading of furniture and stock
  • Classes from P1A to P5A under BS EN 356, with heavier P6B to P8B options

Wiltshire combines Salisbury's medieval and Georgian centre, Swindon's modern town centre, offices and estates, and stone market towns such as Marlborough, Devizes and Bradford-on-Avon.

Common uses:

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

What to think about first

Which security class

P2A suits most homes and many offices. Higher-risk shops, stockrooms and cash areas usually move up to P4A, or to the anti-bandit P6B to P8B classes.

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.

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.

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.

Laminated security glass in Salisbury: questions

Can you survey in Salisbury and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Salisbury, Andover and Totton are booked around installer availability.

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.

What does P2A mean on laminated glass?

P2A is a class under BS EN 356. A sample has to stop a 4.11 kg steel ball dropped three times from 3 metres without the ball passing through. It is a sensible minimum for windows and doors that can be reached from the ground.
