Security glazed doors and screens in Llanelli

What should security glazed doors and screens cost in Llanelli?

Budget £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per doorset for security glazed doors and screens in Llanelli, supplied and fitted. Larger panes, thicker makeups and difficult access cost more; the price is fixed in writing after the survey.

Security glazed doors are complete doorsets, frame, leaf, glass, hinges and locks, built to resist forced entry while still letting people see in and out. They use laminated or anti-bandit glass in heavy aluminium or steel sections, with multi-point locking, and suit shop, office and communal entrances.

Choices you can make

Doorsets tested by their makers where a standard is specified
Multi-point and hook-bolt locking
Panic and emergency exit hardware where required
Door closers, level thresholds and access control provision
Laminated or anti-bandit glass held by internal beads
Heavy aluminium or steel doorsets with side screens

Fitting in Llanelli and nearby

We can arrange security glazed doors and screens across Llanelli, the main centre for Dyfed, and in nearby towns including Gorseinon, Swansea and Ammanford.

Dyfed covers the town-centre shops of Carmarthen and Llanelli, the university town of Aberystwyth, and Pembrokeshire harbour towns such as Tenby, with exposed properties along the west coast.

Good candidates for security glazed doors and screens:

Communal entrances to blocks of flats
Shop and showroom entrances
Office and reception entrances
Rear and side doors to service yards

Before the glass is ordered

Tested doorset or upgrade

Where an insurer, landlord or specifier names a standard, a doorset tested to it by its maker is the route. Otherwise a strong commercial doorset with laminated glass is often enough.

Exit and fire safety

Locking must let people out easily while the building is occupied. We work with your fire risk assessment, and fire doors need fire-rated products.

Glazing rules in Wales

Wales

Fire-rated glass is different

Glass in fire doors and fire screens must be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen, under Approved Document B for Wales and, in non-domestic premises, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Security and laminated glass are not fire-rated unless the product is tested for it, so the two cannot simply be swapped.

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.

Security glazed doors and screens in Llanelli: questions

Which areas near Llanelli do you cover?

We can arrange work in Llanelli and in nearby Gorseinon (5 miles), Swansea (10 miles) and Ammanford (11 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Are steel doorsets better than aluminium?

Steel is stronger for high-risk doors; aluminium is lighter and suits most shop and office entrances. The glass, locks and fixings matter as much as the frame material.

What is PAS 24?

PAS 24 is a British test standard for the security of doors and windows. A doorset tested to it has been attacked in a set way in a lab. The test belongs to the manufacturer's product as tested, not to the installer.

Can a security door also be a fire exit?

Yes, with the right hardware. Exit doors must open easily from inside while people are present, so we choose locking and panic hardware to suit your fire arrangements.
