What's involved with fire-rated escape route glazing in Chalfont St Peter

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.

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

What to check before ordering fire-rated escape route glazing in Chalfont St Peter

Smoke control

Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.

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.

Integrity versus insulation

Building guidance limits the amount and position of integrity-only glass on protected routes because people may need to pass close to it while fire is on the other side. Insulating glass removes most of those limits.
