Ray
Is that when the area of glass is over a certain size? (1m²?) it is a long time since I made a large window and in those day it had to be laminated (maybe toughened, but mine was laminated and about 2m².)
However, I particularly noted that Dom had divided up his door into many small panes and did that "not so simple act" remove the necessity for special glass other than the normal thickness? His panes are really unlike the aluminium window panes that are just a strip of metal over the top and are really still a single large sheet.

Looks like-
As a general guide you must use safety glass in:
-all glass doors
- low level glass (if larger than 1.2 metres - areas under 1.2 metres require a minimum of 5mm thick glass)
throughout your home if you are running a childcare business.
Low-level is below 1.2m in height I believe. You can also apply a glass film to achieve the safety rating.
Cheers, Dom
