What's involved with wired glass replacement in Great Yarmouth

- Frame suitability checks
- Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass
- Survey of existing wired glazing
What to check before ordering wired glass replacement in Great Yarmouth
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.
Phasing
We can replace wired glass over holidays, weekends or zone by zone to keep the building running.
Fire rating
Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.
