Wired Glass Replacement in Canary Wharf: what's included

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.

  • New beads and seals to the frame evidence
  • Impact-classified products for critical locations
  • Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
  • Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass

What to check before ordering wired glass replacement in Canary Wharf

Priority areas

Doors, side panels and low-level glazing in busy corridors, sports halls and schools are usually replaced first.

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.

Why replace it

Wired glass breaks into sharp pieces held by wire, and the wire weakens the glass. In doors and low-level panels it is a common source of hand and arm injuries.

Wired Glass Replacement: Canary Wharf questions

Is it a legal requirement to remove wired glass?

There is no blanket ban, but glazing in critical locations must meet impact safety rules, and duty holders must manage the risk. Replacement is often the practical answer.

Is Georgian wired glass fire-rated?

It can provide integrity in the right frame, typically for 30 minutes and sometimes longer in tested systems, but it does not insulate, and plain wired glass usually lacks an impact safety classification.

Can you price wired glass replacement in Canary Wharf from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Canary Wharf?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
