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.

Things to decide before you order

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.

Access

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

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.

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 Urmston: questions

Do you cover Stretford as well as Urmston?

Yes. As well as Urmston, we can arrange surveys in nearby Stretford, Sale and Eccles. 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.

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.
