What our fire-rated escape route glazing service includes in Bedworth

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.

  • Evidence for the fire safety file
  • Smoke seals and closers on doors
  • Lobby and corridor screens with doors
  • Stair enclosure screens

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.

Smoke control

Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.

Stair enclosures

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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated escape route glazing in Bedworth?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing: Bedworth questions

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.

Can I use glass on a fire escape route?

Yes, if it is fire-rated to the required classification and, for integrity-only glass, within the limits building guidance sets for that position.

Do you carry out fire-rated escape route glazing in Bedworth?

Yes. We survey and install in Bedworth and across Warwickshire, including the CV12 district and nearby Nuneaton.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Bedworth?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
