Safety Glass Requirements in NZ

NZ Building Code requires safety glass (toughened or laminated) in specific locations:

Within 500mm of a door: Any glazing beside or in a door
Low-level glazing: Below 1,050mm in most situations
Wet areas: Shower screens and bathroom glazing
Stairways and balustrades: All glass in these locations

If you're replacing glass, confirm the replacement meets current code requirements — especially in older homes where original glazing may not have been compliant.

Double Glazing in Tauranga

Upgrading from single to double glazing is one of the best thermal improvements for a Tauranga home:

Reduces heat loss through windows by ~50%
Reduces condensation on the glass interior
Improves acoustic insulation from street noise
Typically pays back through energy savings in 8–15 years

Retrofit double glazing: Secondary glazing units can be fitted into existing aluminium frames in many cases — cheaper than full window replacement. Cost: $400–$900 per window.
