How much do security glazed doors and screens cost in Atherton?

Guide prices for security glazed doors and screens in Atherton 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.

Glass and fitting options

  • Door closers, level thresholds and access control provision
  • Doorsets tested by their makers where a standard is specified
  • Panic and emergency exit hardware where required
  • Heavy aluminium or steel doorsets with side screens
  • Multi-point and hook-bolt locking
  • Single, double and sliding configurations

Fitting in Atherton and nearby

From the M46 district we also cover Tyldesley (1 mile) and Westhoughton (2 miles). Survey dates depend on installer availability.

Greater Manchester mixes city-centre offices and converted mills with Victorian terraces in Salford, Oldham and Bolton, suburban high streets and large out-of-town retail parks.

Typical places for security glazed doors and screens:

  • Rear and side doors to service yards
  • Office and reception entrances
  • Communal entrances to blocks of flats
  • Doors to cash offices and stockrooms

Things to decide before you order

Finish and glass

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

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.

Rules that apply in England

England

Planning permission

Changing the glass in an existing window or shopfront does not usually need planning permission, because the building looks much the same afterwards. A new or altered shopfront, or security features added to the outside of a building, may need planning permission from the council. Bollards or barriers on the pavement need the highway authority's consent, which is normally the council.

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.

Security glazed doors and screens in Atherton: questions

Can you survey in Atherton and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Atherton, Tyldesley and Westhoughton are booked around installer availability.

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.

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.

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.
