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

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
  • Evidence for the fire safety file
  • Smoke seals and closers on doors
  • Insulating glass where escape routes require it

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

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 Streatham?

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.
