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.

Hove is about 1 mile from Brighton, the main centre for East Sussex. We can survey and fit across the BN3 district and in nearby places such as Brighton and Portslade.

East Sussex mixes the Regency bow-fronted terraces and busy shopping lanes of Brighton and Hove with Victorian seafronts in Eastbourne and Hastings and historic Lewes and Rye.

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

Questions we will ask at the survey

Finish and glass

Powder-coated frames to RAL colours and low-iron glass keep entrances looking good.

Access

Level thresholds, closers with the right opening force and clear widths keep the entrance usable for everyone.

Insurer requirements

Insurers set their own conditions for shops, offices, stock and cash, and some name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B in the policy wording. Ask for that wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we provide the glass manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.

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.

Security glazed doors and screens in Hove: questions

Which areas near Hove do you cover?

We can arrange work in Hove and in nearby Brighton (1 mile), Portslade (2 miles) and Burgess Hill (9 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Do new entrance doors need building regulations approval?

Replacing whole doors is often controlled building work (notifiable in England and Wales; in Scotland and Northern Ireland check with the council's building control), and new entrances may need planning permission. We tell you what applies before ordering.

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.

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.
