Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →Fire-rated escape route glazing in Redhill is usually needed for one of three reasons: new building work, a change to an existing fire-resisting wall, or defects found in an inspection. We handle all three.

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.
Whether the building is in central Redhill or the wider RH1, RH2 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Reigate, Horley, Caterham. Redhill is about 28 km from Woking, the largest town in our Surrey coverage.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
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.
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.
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.
