Common questions

Do you cover all of Tyne and Wear?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Tyne and Wear, including Gateshead, Hebburn, Jarrow, Newcastle upon Tyne.

Why did my shop glass break with no impact?

Hidden edge damage and frame movement are the usual causes, and toughened glass can also fail from a tiny nickel sulphide inclusion, though that is rare. Annealed glass can crack from uneven heating when part of a pane sits in shade. We look for the cause before refitting.

Do I have to use safety glass in a shop window?

Yes, in many shopfront positions. Approved Document K in England treats glazing in doors, nearby side panels and low-level glazing as critical locations, and these need safety glass or protection. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check what applies to your premises.

Can I switch to stronger glass while the pane is out?

Yes, provided the frame and glazing pocket can take it. Laminated and anti-bandit glass is thicker and heavier than a standard pane, so we check the rebate, the beads and the frame first. If the frame cannot carry it, we will tell you what would need changing.
