Security glazing in Cambridgeshire
After a break-in at your Cambridgeshire shop in the East of England, our 24/7 line can arrange boarding, and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.
Shutters only help once you have closed, so in the East of England we also ask how your Cambridgeshire shop is exposed during trading hours. Security glazing keeps your Cambridgeshire display on view all day, so it suits frontages where a shutter would spoil the look.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Cambridgeshire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cambridgeshire, including Cambridge, Ely, March, Peterborough.
Will security glass fit my existing frame?
Sometimes. Thicker laminated glass needs a deeper glazing pocket, and its weight may be too much for older beads or hinges. We measure the frame first and confirm whether the pane, the beads and the fixings can carry it, or whether the frame must change.
What does P4A or P6B mean on security glass?
They are classes from BS EN 356. P1A to P5A are tested by dropping a steel ball on the glass, and P6B to P8B by axe strikes. A higher number means more resistance, and the B classes are aimed at sustained attack, not a single blow.
Is security glass the same as toughened glass?
No. Toughened glass resists impact but breaks into small pieces when it fails, leaving the opening clear. Security glazing is laminated, so it cracks and stays in place, which keeps an attacker out for longer. Some products combine toughened and laminated layers.
