Windows are the most vulnerable parts of a building. This is especially true in Listed and Heritage buildings with their original, often fragile, single glazed primary windows.

Our RIBA Approved CPD seminar is designed for group learning, encouraging discussion, knowledge sharing and project-specific questions, while helping teams develop a consistent understanding of security secondary glazing and its applications. This seminar provides a comprehensive understanding of how specialist secondary glazing systems can be used to enhance window protection without compromising the character of existing buildings. Attendees will learn how secondary glazing can contribute to protection against intruder attack, blast events, ballistic threats and fire, as well as the key factors that influence specification and performance. Particular emphasis is placed on the implications of the Terrorism Protection of Premises Bill (Martyn's Law), helping specifiers, architects and building professionals better understand the security considerations that may affect future projects. We also examine security testing standards, performance classifications and real-world applications, providing practical guidance on selecting appropriate solutions for different building types and risk profiles. Our aim is to give your team the knowledge and confidence to specify security secondary glazing that balances protection, performance and heritage considerations. You can book an online or in-person CPD. The in-person CPD can be held either at your office or in the Selectaglaze premises in St Albans. If you visit us in St Albans, we can offer a factory tour to give you an in-depth insight into the bespoke design and manufacture.
