What our wired glass replacement service includes in Stanford-le-Hope

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
  • Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass
  • New beads and seals to the frame evidence
  • Survey of existing wired glazing
