Legal regulations require manifestations to be located between 850mm to 1000mm and 1400mm to 1600mm from the floor. Any internal or external walls or doors in non-domestic settings, where people are moving around and could collide with glass, require these safety measures.

Every window or glazed area in a wall, partition, door or gate shall be of safety material or be protected against breakage, i.e. it should not break on impact or should break safely. Safety glazing material must meet BS 6206 Class B in doors and side panels over 900mm wide, and Class C in those less than 900mm wide.

Reflective window film is a flexible solution that allows you to control the negative impact of sunlight by eliminating excess heat, glare and UV rays. It provides a mirror-like look seamlessly combining a classy aesthetic with enhanced daytime privacy and bolstered security. Reflective window film is perfect for creating a comfortable environment as well as boosting your property’s energy efficiency.
