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

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
  • Stair enclosure screens
  • Smoke seals and closers on doors
  • Insulating glass where escape routes require it

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

Vision through doors

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

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.

Burnley coverage and nearby towns

Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing: Burnley questions

Do escape route doors need vision panels?

Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.

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.

Can you price fire-rated escape route glazing in Burnley from photos?

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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Burnley?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
