The legal bit: what’s required?

Relevant transparent glazing often needs to be made apparent so people can see it. In England, Approved Document K is commonly referenced, including two height bands for markings on glass entrance doors and partitions. Scottish projects sit under Scottish Building Standards rather than Approved Document K. Exact heights, contrast and layout depend on the glazing, the project and the applicable requirements — decorative film is not automatically compliant.

Lower level

850 to 1000 mm

Upper level

1400 to 1600 mm

Height bands shown are England Approved Document K guidance, not a universal Scottish clause.

Manifestation FAQs

Is glass manifestation a legal requirement?

Transparent glazing in relevant locations may need to be made apparent. In England, Approved Document K is commonly referenced for that. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations also include a glazing-visibility duty for relevant workplaces. Scottish building work sits under the Building (Scotland) Regulations and Scottish Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Document K. Exact layout depends on the glazing, project and jurisdiction. Decorative film is not automatically compliant, and we do not describe manifestation as DDA certified.

At what height should manifestation be applied?

England Approved Document K guidance commonly references two bands: between 850mm and 1000mm, and between 1400mm and 1600mm above finished floor level. Scottish projects should follow applicable Scottish Technical Handbook and project-specification requirements rather than assuming those England dimensions.

Can manifestation include our company logo?

Absolutely. While simple dots or squares are common, we can design and cut bespoke manifestations that incorporate logos, patterns, or typography while maintaining compliance.

How long does the installation take?

Most projects are completed within a single day. Our teams work efficiently to ensure minimal disruption to your office or commercial environment.
