Things to decide before you order
Trading hours
Large panes take time to swap. We plan the work to keep the shop open and secure, with boarding if a pane cannot be replaced the same visit.
Which class
Most shops do well with P2A to P4A. Jewellers and other high-value trades usually need P6B or above, often because their insurer says so.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Safety glass in critical locations
In Scotland, standard 4.8 of the Building Standards technical handbooks covers glazing at risk of human impact. Panes within 800 mm of floor level, in a door leaf, or within 300 mm of a door leaf and up to 1.5 m above the floor should resist impact in line with BS 6262-4, or be guarded. Laminated and toughened glass are the usual ways to meet it.
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.

Shopfront security glass in Forth Valley: questions
Which towns in Forth Valley do you cover?
We can arrange work anywhere in Forth Valley, including Stirling, Falkirk, Alloa and Grangemouth.
Can you fit the glass without closing the shop?
Usually. We plan early or after-closing slots where an installer is available, and keep the opening secure during the work.
Is my shop window toughened or laminated?
Look for the safety mark in a corner of the pane, or ask us to check at the survey. Many older shopfronts are toughened, which breaks completely and leaves the window open.
Will security glass stop a ram raid?
No glass will stop a vehicle. Laminated glass and strong frames delay entry after impact. Stopping vehicles needs bollards or barriers, which we cover under anti-ram-raid glazing.
