What's involved with wired glass replacement in Leeds

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.

  • Frame suitability checks
  • Modern clear integrity or insulating replacement glass
  • Impact-classified products for critical locations
  • New beads and seals to the frame evidence

Before you order wired glass replacement: what matters

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.

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.

Clear views

Modern fire glass is clear, so replacements also improve visibility and appearance.

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.
