What's involved with wired glass replacement in Bradford

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 Bradford

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.

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.

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