With Glaze-Guard and Door-Guard it really could not be simpler or quicker to fit polycarbonate safety and security glazing in vertical applications. Polycarbonate sheet is the ideal glazing material for 21st century use. It is clear, light, easy to handle and extremely impact resistant (being over 200 times stronger than the equivalent thickness of annealed glass). It will not crack, shatter, splinter or spall - even under the most violent impact or concerted assault.
These innovative Security Guard glazing systems allow you to protect any glazed installation with polycarbonate sheet; enabling you to prevent accidents, thwart vandals and deter criminals. Choose polycarbonate in either a clear tint or an obscure privacy grade.
When it comes to home security, the glazing in a back door is probably one of the most vulnerable areas. It is often too easy for intruders to break the glass and gain access. Fitting a Door-Guard panel helps reduce the risk of unwanted visitors.
Consisting of a pane of clear or obscure polycarbonate and a simple one-part aluminium frame, Door-Guard provides a total barrier against entry.
Glaze-Guard enables the fast and easy installation of impact resistant polycarbonate in vertical applications. This is because it is a 'dry-glazing' system for fitting polycarbonate, as it uses a gasket to hold the polycarbonate securely in the aluminium frame. This 'dry-glazing' system is very easy to do, unlike the traditional method of installing polycarbonate glazing, which requires the use, and skill, of gunned silicone.
Glaze-Guard incorporates features that fulfil the special glazing requirements for installing polycarbonate sheet, including the following:
Although aimed primarily at the anti-vandal market, when correctly installed and fitted with the optimum thickness of polycarbonate sheet, Glaze-Guard will also provide an additional barrier against illegal entry.
Glaze-Guard has been used for internal security glazing in Secure Units, for overglazing to protect vertical glazing in public swimming pools and for many other public, commercial and industrial buildings.
