We measure the existing opening with millimetre precision, identify the type of glass to be replaced (tempered, laminated, Climalit), and check the fixing system to the frame (silicone, PVC profile, neoprene gasket) so the replacement is identical to the original. We provide a fixed quote on the same visit. Tempered glass is the standard for balcony doors, large windows, and areas with impact risk. Its distinctive feature is that when it breaks, it does so into thousands of small, blunt fragments that do not cause serious cuts, rather than large, sharp shards like conventional glass. Spanish regulations (CTE) require tempered or laminated safety glass in all transit areas and at heights below 90 cm. If your broken glass was single conventional glass, we will replace it with tempered glass to comply with regulations.

Double glazing (Climalit) is the standard for thermal and acoustic insulation in modern construction. Two panes of glass separated by a dehydrated air gap and sealed at the perimeter. If one pane of Climalit breaks, the entire unit must be replaced because the air gap becomes contaminated with moisture and loses its insulating function. Replacement is slightly more expensive but technically the only correct solution. The most frequent causes we see are three. First, strong winds that close a sliding door with such violence that it hits the frame and cracks the tempered glass. This happens especially in areas with strong westerly or easterly winds like La Mata, Punta Prima, or Pilar de la Horadada when doors are left improperly closed. Second, children's balls or accidental knocks against window panes on the ground floor or terrace. Third, attempted burglaries where the intruder breaks the balcony door glass to get in, which is relatively rare in the area but does occur. The correct protocol when glass breaks has three steps. First, immediately remove all loose fragments to prevent accidents, which is especially important with children or pets at home. Second, provide a temporary cover with thick plastic sheeting or a board if the area is accessible from the outside and there is a risk of intrusion. And third, call the glazier as soon as possible for measurement and replacement. Urgency depends on whether the area is watertight or not. A window facing an internal courtyard can wait 2-3 days without issue. An external balcony door or window with the risk of rain ingress or burglary needs urgent replacement.

For detached houses, semi-detached homes in areas with a history of incidents, or owners with previous experience of attempted burglaries, we recommend high-security cylinders such as Cisa Astral S, Mul-T-Lock MT5+, Tesa T80 Plus, or Mottura Champions. These meet EN1303 grade 6 standards and include all anti-tamper features (anti-bumping, anti-picking, anti-drilling, anti-extraction). They come with a manufacturer's burglary insurance guarantee. This guarantee is relevant. If, despite everything, an intruder gains entry and you can prove the cylinder was tampered with, the manufacturer covers part of the damage. All this investment in a security cylinder becomes pointless if key copies can be made freely at any local hardware store. The registered key for a security cylinder can only be duplicated at the manufacturer's official distributor by presenting the owner's card we provide upon installation. Without that card, no copy is possible. This means you control exactly how many keys exist and who has them. You will never have the uncomfortable doubt of whether a local locksmith or a copying service has kept a copy of your key pattern for future use. Official manufacturer's warranty 5-10 years depending on the brand and model. Plus 30 days on labour.

The price for security locks in La Teixonera typically ranges between €53 and €510. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. For apartments in blocks with neighbours, an active community, and natural surveillance, we recommend mid-to-high security cylinders like Tesa T80 or Cisa Astral. Effective anti-bumping, registered key (cannot be copied without your authorisation), EN1303 grade 5 certification (resistance to manipulation for years). Reasonable cost and a significant real improvement over the standard. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we reply in under 10 minutes during business hours.
