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.

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.
Finish and glass
Powder-coated frames to RAL colours and low-iron glass keep entrances looking good.
What the rules say in Scotland
Planning permission
Under the Scottish planning system the council decides whether a new or altered shopfront needs planning permission; changing the glass in an existing frame usually does not. Bollards or barriers in a road or footway need consent from the roads authority, which is normally the council.
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for Scottish premises, stock and cash, and may name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B. Get the wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we supply the manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.

Security glazed doors and screens in Newton Mearns: questions
Can you survey in Newton Mearns and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Newton Mearns, Paisley and Rutherglen are booked around 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.
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.
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.
