Laminated Glass has many advantages over standard toughened glass in windows and doors.
If Laminated glass is broken, the laminate holds the panel in place so there is no hole left in the window for an intruder to get in through.
Toughened glass is five times stronger than ordinary glass so it is much harder to break. It is the same glass that you will find in bus stops and phone boxes.
The glass breaks into jagged pieces so burglars would not try to gain entry through this type of window so there is no need to change this type.
We have seen a rise in burglars gaining entry through French, Patio and back doors where toughened glass had been installed. Customers are advised to have Laminated glass fitted in areas where safety glass is needed.
