Security window film in Maghull

What is the price of security window film in Maghull?

Security window film is a clear, tough polyester film bonded to the inside face of existing glass with a strong adhesive. When the glass breaks, the film holds the fragments together, which reduces injury from flying glass and slows down anyone trying to get through, without replacing the glass itself.

Questions we will ask at the survey

Film or new glass

Where frames are being replaced or very high resistance is needed, laminated glass usually gives better value over its life than film.

Daylight application or anchored

A film applied to the visible glass is quickest. Anchoring it to the frame holds the whole pane in place and is the choice for blast mitigation.

Building regulations and safety in England

England

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.

Listed buildings and conservation areas

In England, listed building consent from the council may be needed to replace historic glass such as crown or cylinder glass, or to alter glazing bars, sashes and frames. Historic England publishes guidance on traditional windows. Secondary glazing and window film are often easier to agree because they can be removed later, but the council's conservation officer makes the decision.

Security window film in Maghull: questions

Which areas near Maghull do you cover?

We can arrange work in Maghull and in nearby Kirkby (3 miles), Litherland (4 miles) and Ormskirk (4 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.

Can I still see through security film?

Yes. Security films are optically clear. Frosted and tinted versions are available where privacy or glare control is wanted.

Does security film make glass as strong as laminated glass?

Not usually. Film greatly improves how glass breaks and slows an attack, but it only matches a laminated glass class where that film and glass combination has been tested together.

Can film go on double glazing?

Often, but not always. Some units and coated glass can crack from heat build-up with certain films, so we check the glass type and the unit maker's guidance before fitting.
