What's involved with wired glass replacement in Maidenhead
Wired glass replacement means removing old Georgian or polished wired glass from doors, screens and panels and fitting modern fire-resistant glass that keeps the fire rating while meeting today's impact safety expectations. Wired glass holds together in a fire because of the mesh, but plain wired glass usually lacks an impact safety classification and can cause serious injuries when broken by impact.

- Survey of existing wired glazing
- Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
- Frame suitability checks
What to check before ordering wired glass replacement in Maidenhead
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.
Fire rating
Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.
Clear views
Modern fire glass is clear, so replacements also improve visibility and appearance.
