Patio and bifold door security glass means fitting large sealed units with a laminated pane into sliding, French or bifolding doors. These doors are usually the biggest glass at the back of the house and out of view, so making the glass hold when it is struck closes one of the easiest routes in.

Fitting in Monmouth and nearby
Monmouth is about 20 miles from Newport, the main centre for Gwent. We can survey and fit across the NP25 district and in nearby places such as Chepstow and Abergavenny.
Gwent includes Newport's city centre and business parks, the terraced former mining towns of the Ebbw and Afon Lwyd valleys, and Monmouthshire market towns like Abergavenny and Monmouth.
This glazing suits:
- French doors onto gardens
- Ground-floor flats with doors onto terraces
- Doors hidden from the street by fences or hedges
- Sliding patio doors at the back of a house
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.
Laminated inner or both panes
A laminated inner pane is the usual security upgrade. On very exposed doors both panes can be laminated.
Building regulations and safety in Wales
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.
Planning permission
In Wales the local planning authority decides whether a new or altered shopfront needs planning permission. Replacing glass in an existing frame usually does not, because the outside of the building looks much the same. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need consent from the highway authority, normally the council.

Patio and bifold door security glass in Monmouth: questions
Which areas near Monmouth do you cover?
We can arrange work in Monmouth and in nearby Chepstow (12 miles), Abergavenny (13 miles) and Pontypool (16 miles). 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.
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.
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.
