What to think about first
Prioritising
Start with doors, side panels and low-level glass in busy areas, then work outwards. The schedule makes it easy to phase.
Replace or film
Replacement suits panes in poor frames or high-risk positions. Film is a quick, lower-cost way to protect sound glass in good frames.
Consents and safety: 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.

Safety glazing for schools and public buildings in Morley: questions
Which areas near Morley do you cover?
We can arrange work in Morley and in nearby Batley (3 miles), Dewsbury (4 miles) and Ossett (4 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
What are critical locations?
Glazing in and beside doors up to 1,500 mm from the floor and other glazing below 800 mm, in the English guidance. Similar rules apply in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Do we have to replace all the old glass?
Not necessarily. The duty is to make glass safe where needed. That may mean replacement, film or guarding, depending on the pane and the risk.
Can you replace glass in fire doors?
Often, yes, using the fire-rated glass and glazing system named in the door's certification or test evidence; some doors need a certificated fire-door installer, which we check first. Fire door glass must never be replaced with ordinary safety or security glass.
