Security glazed doors and screens in Brentwood: what will it cost?
Guide prices for security glazed doors and screens in Brentwood are £1,495 to £4,995 plus VAT (£1,794 to £5,994 inc VAT) per doorset for supply and fitting. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey, before any glass is ordered.
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.

- Panic and emergency exit hardware where required

Getting the right glass for your building
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.
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.
What the rules say in England
Fire-rated glass is different
Glass in fire doors, fire screens and protected escape routes has to be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen system, under Approved Document B and the fire safety duties of the building's responsible person. Laminated and security glass are not fire-rated unless the product says so. Where a pane needs both fire and security performance, it must be a product tested for both.
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.

Security glazed doors and screens in Brentwood: questions
Can you survey in Brentwood and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Brentwood, Billericay and Hornchurch are booked around 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.
Can you just change the glass in my existing door?
Often, if the frame is sound. Laminated glass and internal beads are a good upgrade. If the frame is light or worn, a new doorset is better value.
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.
