Vision through doors

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

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 work be done while the building is occupied?

Yes, with phasing and temporary arrangements agreed with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.

Can you price fire-rated escape route glazing in Felixstowe 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.
