Legal Requirements for Glass Manifestations
Please see this link for the legislative requirements for glass manifestations from the Building Regulations 2000 (
Download PDF). We have also provided a simplified guide to explain this document (see images below):
Here is a simplified version of the legislative rules, and how you can comply with them. The blue bands represent the bands described in document M1/M2
whilst dimensions on the left give our recommended heights from floor level, up to the centre of the manifestation design
The diagram here
shows our 50 mm
Range at two levels
on a glazed screen.
If you opt for a
custom manifestation
and create a vinyl logo
or other none continuous
design, this must be at
least 150mm high, and
at the two levels as shown
to comply with regulations.
Although our 50mm range
of standard designs is enough
to comply with the Building
Regulations, our 150 mm range
can look better on larger curtain
walling screens. giving a more
professional, designer look.
Larger custom designs can
be used, and are only needed at
one level. provided it crosses into
both bands described (see right).
We would recomend a miniumum
height of 500 mm for the design,
and that the design be applied
1200mm above floor level to centreline.
