The problem
Standard glass can leave a home exposed after impact
When ordinary glass breaks, it can fall away from the opening and leave sharp pieces on the floor. That is a problem for low-level glazing, doors, street-facing windows and busy family areas. It can also make a home easier to enter after an attempted break-in.
What Alu-Value delivers
Laminated safety glass specified for the real risk
We recommend laminated glass where the opening needs better post-breakage performance, added security or improved comfort. The final specification depends on the size, position, frame, exposure and whether the main concern is safety, intrusion resistance, sound control or UV protection.
Laminated safety glass for doors, sidelights, low-level windows and vulnerable openings.
Security-focused glass choices for street-facing windows, entrances and shopfront-style glazing.
Noise reduction benefits for homes near busy roads, schools, commercial areas or neighbours.
UV protection that helps reduce fading on curtains, furniture, flooring and interior finishes.
SABS-marked glass specified with the correct aluminium frame, beads, seals and fixing details.
