Getting the right glass for your building
Clarity
Thick laminated glass can look green. Low-iron glass keeps colours in the window true.
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.
What the rules say in 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.
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 Horley: questions
Which areas near Horley do you cover?
We can arrange work in Horley and in nearby Crawley (4 miles), Redhill (5 miles) and Reigate (5 miles). 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.
