Glazing & Safety Standards

Safety is non-negotiable. All our installations in Gallows Corner strictly adhere to BS EN 12600 for impact safety. We specialize in Thermally Broken Aluminium Profiles and Toughened Safety Glass (BS EN 12600). For high-risk areas, we install laminated glass which holds together even when shattered, maintaining the security of your premises until a full replacement can be fitted.

Door Hardware & Automation

A shopfront is only as good as its operation. We diagnose and replace faulty Floor Springs and Powder Coated Finishes (RAL Colours). If your heavy glass door is dragging or slamming, it often indicates a failure in the floor spring mechanism. Our engineers in Gallows Corner carry specialized lifting equipment to safely remove heavy leaves and replace the hydraulic units, restoring smooth, safe operation.

Commercial entrances must meet strict UK regulations. We ensure your doors comply with the Equality Act 2010 (DDA Compliance), providing clear opening widths and low-threshold access for wheelchair users. Furthermore, all our powered doors meet BS EN 16005 safety standards, utilizing safety sensors to prevent impact injuries.
