Wired Glass Replacement in Egham: what's included

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.

What to check before ordering wired glass replacement in Egham

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

Wired glass generally provides integrity only. Replacing it lets you keep or improve the fire performance while adding impact safety.

Priority areas

Doors, side panels and low-level glazing in busy corridors, sports halls and schools are usually replaced first.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Questions about wired glass replacement in Egham

Is it a legal requirement to remove wired glass?

There is no blanket ban, but glazing in critical locations must meet impact safety rules, and duty holders must manage the risk. Replacement is often the practical answer.

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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Egham?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Do you carry out wired glass replacement in Egham?

Yes. We survey and install in Egham and across Surrey, including the TW20 district and nearby Staines-upon-Thames.
