Buyers commonly compare 10 mm and 12 mm tempered glass; thickness alone does not establish suitability. For a replacement, use the original panel drawing.<\/p>\n<h2>Choosing 10 mm or 12 mm Glass<\/h2>\n<p>Use the thickness approved for the court&#8217;s panel dimensions, supports and design loads. A thicker pane cannot compensate for an incompatible frame. For outdoor or panoramic courts, ask the supplier to explain the complete enclosure specification.<\/p>\n<p>Compare our <a href=\"\/es\/classic-padel-court\/\">classic framed court<\/a> and <a href=\"\/es\/panoramic-padel-court\/\">panoramic court<\/a> when choosing a new system.<\/p>\n<h2>Documents to Check Before Ordering<\/h2>\n<p>Request safety-glass documentation applicable to the supplied product and destination. Where relevant, this may include EN 12150 evidence, impact classification or specified heat-soak treatment. A standard named on a website is not proof that your order meets it.<\/p>\n<p>Keep the approved enclosure drawing, panel schedule and supplier documents together.

Confirm these details before production:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Width, height, thickness, corners and edge finish.<\/li>\n<li>Hole positions, diameters and countersinks.<\/li>\n<li>Compatible gaskets, bolts and support details.<\/li>\n<li>Any tint, printing or required treatment.<\/li>\n<li>Delivery address, unloading access and installation scope.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Similar-sized panels can have different hole patterns. Do not drill or cut a finished tempered panel to make it fit. If drawings are missing, ask a qualified installer how to verify the specification safely.<\/p>\n<h2>Installation, Damage and Cost<\/h2>\n<p>Follow the approved fixing and handling instructions. Check transit damage, frame alignment, gaskets and specified clearances; avoid copying a generic tightening value from another court. If glass is damaged, restrict access and arrange assessment before reopening.<\/p>\n<p>Compare the full replacement cost: panel, packing, freight, handling and installation. Confirm dispatch and fitting dates separately, because production time is not the same as court downtime.<\/p>\n<h2>Quick answers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-rank-math-faq-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\">Can 12 mm glass replace a 10 mm panel?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n<p>Only after the court manufacturer or designer confirms compatibility with the frame, fixings and approved design.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rank-math-faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\">What do I need for a replacement enquiry?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n<p>Provide the panel drawing or verified dimensions and hole pattern, court model, panel location, photographs and destination.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rank-math-faq-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question\">Is a glass certificate enough for a whole court?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer\">\n<p>No. The enclosure, fixings, foundations and site-specific design also need review.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"\/es\/contact\/\">Send XTZ Padel your glass enquiry<\/a>.
