Glazing Audit: Make sure your glass is safe
Posted on - September 6, 2024The glass used in many buildings and homes is not only dangerous when broken – but can also expose valuables and property to burglary or theft.
If you have windows at street level – particularly if you are adjacent to a public right of way – you could be at risk.
If you are the custodian of a public building – or the owner or manager of a commercial space or workplace – you need to make sure you have taken steps to protect everyone while they are on your premises.

Big efforts have been made to make glass more safe – toughened glass for example – so the pane shatters into fairly innocuous granules rather than lethal shards.
Even if glass has been replaced or new windows and doors have been fitted – there can still be a substantial risk.
Window film is the answer
It instantly upgrades your glazing making it safe and secure – giving you peace of mind.
A full glass survey from Durable ensures the glazing in your building is safe, legal, and fit-for-purpose.
Any building where members of the public, staff, students, or children could come into contact with glass needs to be made safe. There is a duty of care and legal requirement to do so. In fact the penalties for nottaking steps to protect can be very harsh should the unthinkable occur.
Durable offer a glazing audit – which not only examines the state of all your glass – but also provides a comprehensive report on what solutions can best remedy any issues.
We individually assess each building and produce a unique report showing which glazing meets with compliance levels and which do not, along with an action plan to upgrade to meet the necessary requirements.
