Car windscreen replacement – what should a professional consider? 5 important points

Replacing windscreen glass is not as simple as you might think. It requires precision, the right tools and expertise. The windscreen is an essential part of the structural safety of a car as one of its load-bearing structures, and its correct installation also ensures that the ADAS systems (such as lane departure warning and collision warning systems) that assist the driver are also effective. InCar professionals ensure a careful, safe and original factory-installed glass replacement.

1. The right materials

InCar uses glass from Saint-Gobain and Pilkington, two of the world’s largest manufacturers of automotive glass, which produce factory-fitted glass for most makes of car. These first-rate glasses, which are the equivalent of original equipment glasses, ensure a perfect fit with the car’s structure and safety systems.

2. Professional accuracy and clean working conditions

Changing the windscreen requires care. Even the slightest negligence during installation can weaken the fixing and affect safety. InCar experts ensure correct working methods and use precision in all stages of the work.

3. Quality of the fixing materials and correct drying time

A special windscreen adhesive is used to both fix and seal the windscreen to the car’s bodywork. A properly attached windscreen will not come loose from the car body even in the event of a collision. InCarin will return the car that has had the windscreen replaced to the customer when the SDAT (safe drive away time) of the adhesive has elapsed.

4. Calibration of ADAS systems

Many safety systems, such as lane departure warning and emergency braking functions, require precise calibration after windscreen replacement. InCar experts ensure that the systems function correctly according to the car manufacturers’ criteria.

5. Safety inspections and ensuring the quality of work

At InCar, every windscreen replacement ends with a thorough quality check. An InCar expert checks that the glass is securely fixed and the installation meets all requirements before the car is handed over to the customer.
