What our fire-rated escape route glazing service includes in Maidenhead
Escape route glazing is fire-rated glass in the walls and doors of protected stairs, lobbies and corridors, the routes people rely on to leave a building safely. It has to hold back fire and smoke for the rated time, and on many routes it has to keep heat away from people passing it as well.
- Evidence for the fire safety file
- Smoke seals and closers on doors
- Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels
- Insulating glass where escape routes require it
Key checks for Maidenhead projects
Smoke control
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
Vision through doors
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
Stair enclosures
Glazing into a protected stair needs particular care; the rules depend on whether the stair is part of a protected shaft and how the building is used.

Yes, with phasing and temporary arrangements agreed with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.
