It helps duty holders meet workplace and building safety rules where children, staff and visitors move around.

Hexham is about 21 miles from Morpeth, the main centre for Northumberland. We can survey and fit across the NE46 district and in nearby places such as Consett and Stanley.

Northumberland is mostly rural, with stone market towns such as Hexham, Alnwick and Morpeth, former mining towns like Ashington and Blyth, and coastal villages open to North Sea winds.

This glazing suits:

Primary and secondary schools
Offices with older internal glazing
Libraries, leisure centres and council buildings
Nurseries and early-years settings

Questions we will ask at the survey

Manifestation

Large clear panes need markings at eye level so people do not walk into them.

Prioritising

Start with doors, side panels and low-level glass in busy areas, then work outwards. The schedule makes it easy to phase.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

Glazing in workplaces

Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 requires windows and transparent surfaces in walls, partitions, doors and gates to be of safety material or protected against breakage where health or safety makes that necessary, and to be marked so people notice them. The employer or the person in control of the premises decides what is needed through their risk assessment.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.
