What's involved with wired glass replacement in Darton

- Phased replacement plans for occupied buildings
- Impact-classified products for critical locations
- Survey of existing wired glazing
- Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass
Before you order wired glass replacement: what matters
Phasing
We can replace wired glass over holidays, weekends or zone by zone to keep the building running.
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.
Fire rating
