Ways we can help in Newton Abbot
Bifold Doors in Newton Abbot
Thresholds range from a raised weathered sill to a low or flush threshold for level access between floor and patio. Low thresholds rely on drainage outside, such as a slot drain, and some shelter from driving rain. The right choice depends on exposure, patio levels and how the doors are used.
Shopfront Glazing in Newton Abbot
Security glazing is classified under BS EN 356 by its resistance to manual attack. Classes P1A to P5A are tested by dropping a steel ball on the glass from set heights, and the higher classes P6B to P8B are tested with repeated axe and hammer blows.
Emergency Glazing in Newton Abbot
When permanent glass replaces a broken pane in a door, beside a door or low down near the floor, it should be safety glass. In England, Approved Document K sets out these critical locations, so the replacement may need a higher specification than the original glass.

Glazing in Newton Abbot: questions
Is the survey really free?
Yes, for new glazing and glass replacement. Measuring and quoting costs you nothing and there is no obligation to go ahead. If a visit is only to diagnose or repair a fault, or to board up a broken window, we tell you before booking whether a charge applies. Once you accept a quote, the price on it is the price for that specification, and any extra work is agreed with you in writing first.
What happens to the old glass?
We take away the old glass and packaging and dispose of it responsibly. If you would like anything kept, such as original leaded panels, tell us before the work starts.
Can you match my existing glass?
In most cases, yes. We can match common obscure patterns, Georgian bars, leaded designs and tints, and we will tell you on the survey if an exact match is not available and what the closest option is.
How do payment and deposits work?
Payment terms are set out on your written quote. For made-to-measure items a deposit may be requested before ordering, and the quote explains when the balance is due.
Do you cover Newton Abbot?
Yes. We cover Newton Abbot and the surrounding Devon area, including postcode districts TQ12. Start with your postcode on the quote form and we will arrange a free survey and a written quote.
