We provide a professional 24-hour boarding service throughout Enfield and the surrounding areas, ensuring our vans are always stocked to secure your property promptly. As Enfield glaziers, we understand the urgency and offer boarding as a temporary measure before glass replacement.
Your shop front is the face of your business, so when your glass is damaged, it’s essential to replace it as quickly as possible! The most common call-outs we get are for:
• Burglary or break-in damage • Vandalism repairs • Condensation in the glass • Scratched, cracked or shattered glass • Misty glass in-between panes • General wear & tear
This type of glass adds additional strength to your windows. To gain entry, a burglar would have to strike the glass repeatedly in the same spot in order to make a small opening. Most burglars are reluctant to create this type of noise for fear of being detected.
Annealed Glass Less expensive, Good visibility Laminated Glass Strong material, shatter-resistant glass Low-E Glass Energy-efficient, thermal coating that lasts 10 to 15 years Tinted Glass Promotes greater privacy, heat transfer resistant
These glass sheets are held together permanently by an interlayer such as polyvinyl butyral (PVB). Laminated glass is about two times stronger than standard float glass of the same thickness, with the advantage that in case of breakage, it generally holds together by breaking into a spider-web pattern.
Laminated glass products make float glass suitable for today's demanding architectural applications such as: noise reduction, hurricane impact-resistance, blast mitigation, forced entry, protection from broken glass – or a combination of these.
The cost factor is a significant consideration, as it tends to be more expensive than standard glass options.
As the most common type of affordable glass, float glass will often be used for low-cost windows and smaller display cabinet-style doors, as well as being the base material for almost every other application.
