Glazing for schools, colleges, universities and nurseries

Coverage: UK-wide
Warranty: 10-year insurance-backed
Accreditation: FENSA registered

Educational buildings need glazing that's tough, safe, secure and acoustically separated. S&K Glazing installs safety-glazed classroom windows, fire-rated corridor partitions, sound-insulated walls between teaching rooms, polycarbonate sports-hall glazing, and DDA-compliant entrance doors. We work with primary schools, secondary schools, colleges, universities and nurseries across the UK — including out-of-term and holiday installation programmes.

Key glazing requirements

  • Toughened and laminated safety glass to BS EN 12600 (Class 1B)
  • Fire-rated glazed corridors and stairwell screens
  • Acoustic glass between classrooms (BB93 acoustic standards)
  • Robust polycarbonate or laminated glazing for sports halls and gymnasiums
  • Anti-finger-trap door systems for nurseries and primary schools
  • Holiday and out-of-term installation to avoid term-time disruption

Our experience in this sector

We've installed glazing across primary and secondary schools, college campus refurbishments, university lecture theatres, and nursery fitouts. Most school installations are scheduled during summer holidays or half-terms to avoid disruption to teaching.
