What's involved with wired glass replacement in Streatham
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.
- Survey of existing wired glazing
- Impact-classified products for critical locations
- Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
- New beads and seals to the frame evidence
