What our wired glass replacement service includes in Boston
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.
- Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass
- Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
- Survey of existing wired glazing
- Impact-classified products for critical locations
Key checks for Boston projects
Clear views
Modern fire glass is clear, so replacements also improve visibility and appearance.
Fire rating
Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.
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.
England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Wired Glass Replacement: Boston questions
What replaces wired glass?
Clear modern integrity or insulating fire glass with an impact classification, compatible with the frame.
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.
How quickly can you survey in Boston?
Survey timing in Boston depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Boston?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
