What our fire-rated escape route glazing service includes in Rhosllannerchrugog

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
  • Lobby and corridor screens with doors
  • Insulating glass where escape routes require it
  • Smoke seals and closers on doors

What to check before ordering fire-rated escape route glazing in Rhosllannerchrugog

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.

Vision through doors

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

Smoke control

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

Which rules apply to fire-rated escape route glazing in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Wales Which rules apply?

Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.

Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.

Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing: Rhosllannerchrugog questions

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.

Why would a corridor need insulating glass?

Because people escaping may pass right beside the glass. Insulating glass limits the temperature rise on the escape side, so people can pass it more safely.

Do you carry out fire-rated escape route glazing in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Yes. We survey and install in Rhosllannerchrugog and across Clwyd, including the LL14 district and nearby Wrexham.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazing in Rhosllannerchrugog?

Rhosllannerchrugog is in Wales, where the Welsh Approved Document B applies to building work and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers occupied premises.
