If your home was built before 1989, it is unlikely that safety glass was installed. In keeping with current building codes, areas where it must be installed are in glass doors and glass side panels, family rooms, children’s playrooms and in high traffic areas. The safety glass used must be in accordance with Australian and New Zealand Standard
