Ways we can help in Uppingham
Sliding Doors in Uppingham
Sliding door panes reach near the floor, so they need safety glass. In England, Approved Document K treats glass in doors, and in side panels within 300mm of a door's edge, up to 1500mm from the floor as critical. Toughened glass is standard; laminated adds security and holds together if broken.
Aluminium Windows in Uppingham
Security on aluminium windows comes from multi-point locking, internally glazed beads, lockable handles and robust hinges. For easily accessible windows in new homes in England, Approved Document Q expects security to the PAS 24 standard, and specifying the same for ground-floor replacements is a sensible precaution.
Window Film in Uppingham
Many window films block most ultraviolet light, which is one cause of fading in furniture, floors and stock. Visible light and heat also contribute to fading, so film slows fading rather than stopping it. A clear UV film changes the view very little.

Glazing in Uppingham: questions
What is safety glass and where is it needed?
Safety glass is toughened or laminated glass that breaks in a safer way than ordinary float glass. Building regulations require it in critical locations, such as glass in and beside doors and low-level glazing, and we specify it wherever it is required.
Do you handle commercial and shopfront work?
Yes. We quote for shopfront glass, security laminated glazing, office partitions, glazed screens and curtain walling, as well as reactive glass replacement for commercial premises.
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 I cancel after accepting a quote?
If you contract at home or remotely, you normally have 14 days to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Made-to-measure goods that have been made to your specification may not be cancellable once production starts; your quote and terms explain this clearly.
