Safety Glass Specifications
Available Glass Finishes
All our glass is heat-treated (toughened) to increase its strength by up to 500% compared to standard float glass. Select your aesthetic finish below.
Edge Profiling
Choose between standard functional edges for framed structures, or polished edges for exposed glass elements.
Clean Cut (Standard)
The glass is scored and snapped cleanly. Edges are left raw as they will be fully concealed and protected within window frames or partition channels.
Flat Polished Edge
Edges are machined smooth with safety chamfers. Recommended if the edges of the safety glass will remain exposed to touch.
Measurement Protocol
Perfectly fitting safety panes ensure complete security. Measure your frames or spaces carefully before placing a custom order.
Always use a rigid metal tape for accurate readings.
If fitting glass into a frame, deduct 2mm–3mm from your tight opening measurement to allow for installation clearance.
Measure across the diagonals of your window or partition space to ensure the opening is perfectly square.
All custom glass orders are processed and manufactured in millimeters.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of safety glass do you offer in the UK?
We offer toughened (tempered) glass, laminated safety glass, and wired safety glass, all customized to suit various security and structural requirements.
What is the difference between toughened and laminated safety glass?
Toughened glass is heat-treated to be 4-5 times stronger than regular glass and shatters into small, blunt chunks if broken. Laminated glass contains a plastic interlayer that holds the glass together upon impact, preventing it from shattering and maintaining a barrier.
What thicknesses are available for safety glass?
We offer thicknesses ranging from 4mm up to 19mm for toughened glass, and various specialized thicknesses like 6.4mm up to 21.5mm for laminated glass.
What sizes can I order for safety glass panels?
Custom sizes from 150mm up to 3000mm are available, perfectly tailored to your window, door, or partition frames.
What types of edge finishes are offered for safety glass?
We provide standard Clean Cut edges for framed installations, as well as Flat Polish and Beveled finishes for exposed edges like balustrades and tabletops.
Can I order safety glass with custom drill holes or cutouts?
Yes, we can provide precise cutouts, notches, and drill holes for hinges and handles. Please note that for toughened glass, all processing and cutting must be done before the tempering process.
Does your safety glass meet UK building regulations?
Yes, our safety glass fully complies with UK building regulations and safety standards, including BS EN 12150 for toughened glass and BS EN 14449 for laminated glass.
How do you pack and ship safety glass panels?
Small to medium panels are securely packed to prevent damage. Large or architectural panels are shipped unpacked on specialized A-frames for inspection upon delivery.
What is the usual delivery time for safety glass orders?
Delivery typically takes 10-12 working days across the UK.
Which UK areas do you deliver safety glass to?
We offer flat rate delivery across England, with additional charges possible for Wales and Scotland.

Premium Safety Glass: Ultimate Protection & Durability
When it comes to the structural integrity and security of your home or commercial space, standard glazing simply isn’t enough. Our premium safety glass is engineered to provide maximum impact resistance, protecting your property against accidents, severe weather, and forced entry while ensuring absolute peace of mind.
Engineered for Injury Prevention
Unlike traditional annealed panes that break into dangerous, jagged shards, our safety glass is specifically manufactured to mitigate the risk of injury. We supply the two most trusted forms of protective glazing:
- Toughened (Tempered) Glass: Heat-treated to be up to five times stronger than standard glass. In the rare event of a breakage, it shatters into small, blunt, and harmless granular chunks.
- Laminated Glass: Constructed with a tough, clear plastic interlayer sandwiched between two panes. If broken, the glass fragments adhere firmly to the resin layer, remaining intact in the frame and preventing immediate shattering.
Essential for High-Risk Applications
Whether you are renovating a family home or outfitting a busy retail storefront, building regulations often require protective glazing in critical locations. Safety glass is the mandatory, high-performance choice for low-level windows, glass doors, shower enclosures, glass balustrades, staircases, and skylights.
Why Choose Our Protective Glazing?
- Superior Impact Resistance: Built to withstand heavy physical impacts, daily wear-and-tear, and harsh environmental conditions without compromising visual clarity.
- Enhanced Security: Laminated options act as a formidable barrier against break-ins, making it incredibly difficult for intruders to penetrate the window or door frame.
- Code Compliance: Ensure your architectural projects are fully compliant with local building and safety regulations by utilizing officially rated and tested glass.
Don’t compromise on the safety of your family, customers, or employees. Browse our extensive range of custom-cut safety glass options to find the perfect, precision-measured fit for your next structural upgrade.
