Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Newbury: what's included

We supply and install glazed screens, doors and panels on escape routes in offices, flats, schools and healthcare buildings, working from the fire strategy so integrity and insulation are used in the right places, and smoke control is maintained.

  • Stair enclosure screens
  • Smoke seals and closers on doors
  • Lobby and corridor screens with doors
  • Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels

Before you order fire-rated escape route glazing: what matters

Vision through doors

Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.

Keep routes clear

We plan installation so escape routes stay available while the building is occupied, or agree temporary arrangements with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.

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.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Questions about fire-rated escape route glazing in Newbury

Do escape route doors need vision panels?

Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.

Can I use glass on a fire escape route?

Yes, if it is fire-rated to the required classification and, for integrity-only glass, within the limits building guidance sets for that position.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Newbury?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Can you price fire-rated escape route glazing in Newbury from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
