Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →If a building in Bexley needs fire-rated escape route glazing, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

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.
Our Greater London coverage takes in Bexley (DA15, DA5, DA6, DA7, DA14, DA1) and the neighbouring towns of Welling, Dartford, Swanley. We cover Bexley as part of our Greater London coverage.
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
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.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
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.

Yes, if it is fire-rated to the required classification and, for integrity-only glass, within the limits building guidance sets for that position.
Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.
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.
