Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Perth: 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
  • Evidence for the fire safety file
  • Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels
  • Lobby and corridor screens with doors

Before you order fire-rated escape route glazing: what matters

Vision through doors

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

Integrity versus insulation

Building guidance limits the amount and position of integrity-only glass on protected routes because people may need to pass close to it while fire is on the other side. Insulating glass removes most of those limits.

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.

Fire glazing rules in Scotland

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Building types we cover in Perth

We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, retail and leisure units and other building types in Perth.

Perth is in Scotland, so work needs a building warrant and follows the Building Standards Technical Handbooks, with the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 covering occupied premises.
