What our wired glass replacement service includes in Stanley

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.

  • Impact-classified products for critical locations
  • Survey of existing wired glazing
  • Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
  • Frame suitability checks
