Things to decide before you order
Clarity
Thick laminated glass can look green. Low-iron glass keeps colours in the window true.
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.
Rules that apply in England
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.
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.

Shopfront security glass in Bexley: questions
Do you cover Welling as well as Bexley?
Yes. As well as Bexley, we can arrange surveys in nearby Welling, Dartford and Swanley. Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
Can my insurer specify the glass?
Yes. Some insurers name a class for certain stock. Send us the wording and we will quote to it; the insurer decides whether the product meets their conditions.
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.
