Does your glass balustrade project need a PS1? 👷♂️
A PS1 is design evidence that may support a New Zealand building consent application. Requesting it early—before ordering or installation—can help identify missing details and reduce avoidable delays.
Our guide covers:
▪️ What a PS1 does
▪️ When it may be required
▪️ What information to prepare
▪️ The difference between PS1, PS2, PS3 and PS4
Already preparing a project? Start with the information and drawings you have. If you’re unsure which system or pathway applies, Royal Glass can review your application and advise the next step.
