Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Newry: what's included
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.
- Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels
- Smoke seals and closers on doors
- Lobby and corridor screens with doors
- Evidence for the fire safety file
How we work in Newry

Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Newry building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Newry identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Key checks for Newry projects
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.

Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing: Newry questions
Can work be done while the building is occupied?
Yes, with phasing and temporary arrangements agreed with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.
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.
Which rules apply to fire-rated glazing in Newry?
Newry is in Northern Ireland, where the Building Regulations (NI) 2012 and Technical Booklet E apply, with the Fire Safety Regulations (NI) 2010 covering occupied premises.
