Glass manifestation is marking such as dots, bands, logos or frosted strips applied to glass doors, screens and partitions so people can see the glass and don't walk into it.
Points in favour of glass manifestation in Bournemouth
- During a Bournemouth fit-out, sign-off tends to go more smoothly when the glazing is already marked at the recommended heights.
- Rebranding a Bournemouth office? Old manifestation can be replaced at the same time, so the safety markings match the new look.
- Offices in Bournemouth moving into space with glass partitions often find manifestation on the landlord's list before handover.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Bournemouth
Two sets of rules can touch glass graphics in England. The first is advertisement control: lettering and graphics on the inside of a shop window are often outside it or allowed, but councils differ, and conservation areas and listed shopfronts can bring restrictions on large graphics. The second is safety. Approved Document K points to manifestation bands at 850–1000 mm and 1400–1600 mm from the floor, and in workplaces regulation 14 of the 1992 Workplace Regulations requires glazing to be marked where needed. We take both into account when we set out the proof, and we check with the council where the building or street calls for it.
