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.
Glass manifestation in Kettering: the practical benefits
- If an inspection in Kettering has flagged unmarked glass, one measured survey can price every door and panel.
- Where a Kettering building has a glazed stairwell or atrium, access to every pane is planned at the survey.
- Schools, surgeries and leisure centres around Kettering see visitors of every age and height, which is why two marking zones matter.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Kettering
Window graphics are something councils treat in different ways. Graphics applied inside the glass are often outside advertisement control or allowed without an application, but large graphics on a listed shopfront or in a conservation area can be restricted, so we check first. Manifestation is a separate matter of safety rather than advertising: glazing that people could walk into must be made visible. In England, Approved Document K suggests marking two zones, 850–1000 mm and 1400–1600 mm above floor level, and the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, regulation 14, require transparent surfaces to be marked where necessary for safety.
