What's involved with wired glass replacement in Mitcham

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

Is wired glass dangerous?

When broken by impact it can cause serious cuts. That is why it is often replaced in doors and low-level positions.

Can you price wired glass replacement in Mitcham 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.

How quickly can you survey in Mitcham?
