What's involved with wired glass replacement in Clydebank
Schools, hospitals, housing blocks and older offices often still have wired glass in doors and corridors. We survey it, confirm what the frames can accept, and replace it with clear integrity or insulating glass that is compatible with the frame and carries an impact classification.
- Impact-classified products for critical locations
- New beads and seals to the frame evidence
- Frame suitability checks
- Survey of existing wired glazing
