WE THINK SAFETY ! SAFETY ! SAFETY !

 

 

Most of modern day vehicles have a directly glazed windscreen. This basically means that your windscreen is glued to the body of your Vehicle. The importance of the correct installation of your windscreen is crucial to the structural strength of your vehicle and to your personal safety. In the event of an accident you can rely on the rigidity of your windscreen and side panel glass units. The adhesive has the grab (hold) ability of 4000 lb/sq inch and is 30% of the overall structural strength of your vehicle and is not just a piece of glass . The terminology used within our industry for directly glazed windscreens is "bonded".

 

A Autoglaze U.K professional windscreen installation will ensure if the front air-bags ever should deploy that a perfect installed windscreen will remain rigid and keep you and your family safe.

We hope this explains the safety aspect of a windscreen installation and the background which keeps you and your vehicle safe and sound. It is for this reason that your windscreen must be installed by fully trained and professional experienced Technicians, which you will always find at Autoglaze U.K.

 

At Autoglaze U.K we only use BRAND NEW OEM approved Glass which is as good as manufacturers fitted Glass and ALWAYS fitted to OEM Standards and PAS 125 COMPLIANT . Autoglaze U.K only supply brand new oem approved glass not second hand or imported cheap glass which is inferior as it is of incorrect thickness and incorrect shape in turn meaning it does not fit correctly putting your safety at risk. Cheapest is not necessarily always the best just think is it worth saving that fiver difference in quotes as it may be cheap imported glass or second hand glass or second hand glass being sold as new ? is it worth risking mine and my passengers safety?.
