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

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.

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.
