What to think about first

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.

Finish and glass

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

Consents and safety: Wales

Wales

Fire-rated glass is different

Glass in fire doors and fire screens must be fire-rated glass tested as part of that door or screen, under Approved Document B for Wales and, in non-domestic premises, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Security and laminated glass are not fire-rated unless the product is tested for it, so the two cannot simply be swapped.

Glazing in workplaces

Regulation 14 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 applies in Wales. Windows and transparent surfaces in walls, partitions, doors and gates must be of safety material or protected against breakage where health or safety requires it, and marked so they are apparent. The employer's risk assessment decides where that applies.

Security glazed doors and screens in Brecon: questions

Do you cover Merthyr Tydfil as well as Brecon?

Yes. As well as Brecon, we can arrange surveys in nearby Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale and Aberdare. 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.
