Fitting in Coulsdon and nearby

Whether you are in central Coulsdon or at the edge of the CR5 district, we can arrange a survey. Nearby Purley and Banstead are covered too.

Greater London has every kind of glazing, from Georgian sashes and Victorian bays in conservation areas to high-street shopfronts, office curtain walling and new-build flats.

This glazing suits:

Doors hidden from the street by fences or hedges
Ground-floor flats with doors onto terraces
Bifold doors in kitchen extensions
French doors onto gardens

Questions we will ask at the survey

Solar control

South-facing doors can overheat. Adding solar control glass at the same time keeps rooms cooler.

Integral blinds

Units with blinds inside the glass can be made with a laminated pane, but lead times are longer.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Planning permission

Changing the glass in an existing window or shopfront does not usually need planning permission, because the building looks much the same afterwards. A new or altered shopfront, or security features added to the outside of a building, may need planning permission from the council. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need the highway authority's consent, which is normally the council.

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.

Patio and bifold door security glass in Coulsdon: questions

Do you cover Purley as well as Coulsdon?

Yes. As well as Coulsdon, we can arrange surveys in nearby Purley, Banstead and Wallington. Dates depend on installer availability.

Will laminated glass make my bifolds harder to open?

Units are slightly heavier. We adjust hinges, rollers and carriages after fitting so the doors run smoothly.

Is patio door glass already safety glass?

It should be, because doors are critical locations. Most is toughened, which is safe but not secure. Adding a laminated pane makes it both.

Can you replace just one pane of a bifold?

Yes. Each leaf takes its own unit, so we can upgrade one leaf or all of them.
