Ways we can help in Lichfield
Frameless Glass in Lichfield
For buildings other than dwellings in England, access guidance says a manual door should open with no more than 30N of force at its edge from closed to 30 degrees, and 22.5N from 30 to 60 degrees. Heavy glass doors and closers are set up with that limit in mind.
Secondary Glazing in Lichfield
Opening styles include vertical sliders that line up with sash window meeting rails, horizontal sliders for wide openings, hinged casements, lift-out panels for windows that are rarely opened, and fixed panes. The choice depends on how you use the window, cleaning access and fire escape needs.
Sliding Doors in Lichfield
In England, a replacement door with more than 60% of its internal face glazed should achieve a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K or a Doorset Energy Rating of band C under Approved Document L. Large sliding doors in new extensions are assessed within the extension's energy calculations.

Glazing in Lichfield: 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 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.
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.
Do you cover my area?
We cover England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Some islands and remote areas are quoted by arrangement. Enter your postcode on the quote form and we will confirm cover before any visit is booked.
