Generally, display windows (including shop fronts) are exempt from the requirements of Part L of the building regulations and as such are usually glazed with a single pane. The specification of an appropriate glass for shop front applications may depend upon a number of factors, including the size of the pane, how it’s supported and the design wind load. For specific advice on glass for shop fronts, please contact the Pilkington Technical Advisory Service on (01744) 69 2000.
