Glass handling, breakages, inherent risks and installation
-
When handling tempered glass, the utmost care must be taken to avoid any personal lifting injury and/or glass breakages.
-
Whilst tempered safety glass, when broken will shatter into small cube like shapes these small fragments of glass can still cause small lacerations to skin when handled.
-
If in any case the tempered glass does shatter always ensure that gloves are worn for the clean-up. Heavy duty steel dust pan and brush should be used and glass placed in a small vessel then carried to a larger refuse bin.
-
Glass thicknesses of 10mm and 12mm in the panel sizes we sell can weigh anything up to 70kg per panel. Care must be taken and correct, safe lifting practises must be employed to minimise the risk of back injury. Always use your legs to lift rather than your back, crouching down with a straight back and rising up slowly with one hand placed underneath the panel and one on the side to stabilise it.
-
Always ensure that the path where the glass will be carried is free from obstructions and trip hazards. If possible a third or fourth person should act as a spotter and guide the people carrying the glass through the safest route possible.
-
FENCEON accepts NO responsibility for any injury or lass or damage to property through the mishandling of glass and hardware products.
