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

Smoke control

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

Stair enclosures

Glazing into a protected stair needs particular care; the rules depend on whether the stair is part of a protected shaft and how the building is used.

Inspection regimes

In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
