What to check before ordering in Argyll and Bute
Fire rating
Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.
Frame checks
Old frames may not have evidence for modern fire glass. We assess them and recommend frame replacement where the evidence cannot be established.
Phasing
We can replace wired glass over holidays, weekends or zone by zone to keep the building running.
