Glass safety
You can help prevent accidents by ensuring all glass in the house is safe. Consider
using:
- Safety glass - if you’re having new glass put in always choose
safety glass, especially for internal or patio doors. This is toughened glass that rarely
breaks but if it does, shatters into small cuboid pieces which are relatively harmless.
- Safety film - to protect glass doors which aren’t made from safety
glass use safety film - a self-adhesive, transparent film that prevents glass from
shattering when it breaks. It can also be used on windows, coffee tables or any glass
surface
- Transfers - these are useful on large areas of window to remind
children that the glass is there and prevent them from walking into it
