Things to decide before you order
Glass or frame first
If the frame is shallow or light, upgrading the glass alone moves the weak point to the frame. We price both so you can decide.
Clarity
Thick laminated glass can look green. Low-iron glass keeps colours in the window true.
Rules that apply in 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.
Insurer requirements
Insurers set their own conditions for shops, offices, stock and cash, and some name a glazing class such as BS EN 356 P6B in the policy wording. Ask for that wording in writing before you order. The insurer decides whether the glass meets their policy; we provide the glass manufacturer's test evidence with the quote.

Shopfront security glass in Urmston: questions
Which areas near Urmston do you cover?
We can arrange work in Urmston and in nearby Stretford (2 miles), Sale (2 miles) and Eccles (3 miles). Dates depend on installer availability.
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.
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.
