Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Oadby: 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.
- Stair enclosure screens
- Lobby and corridor screens with doors
- Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels
- Insulating glass where escape routes require it
What to check before ordering fire-rated escape route glazing in Oadby
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.
Vision through doors
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
Inspection regimes
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
England regulations that shape the job
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.

Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing: Oadby questions
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.
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.
Do you carry out fire-rated escape route glazing in Oadby?
Yes. We survey and install in Oadby and across Leicestershire, including the LE2 district and nearby Wigston.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Oadby?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
