Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Dewsbury: 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
  • Insulating glass where escape routes require it
  • Lobby and corridor screens with doors
  • Corridor subdivision doors with vision panels

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

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.

Smoke control

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

Inspection regimes

In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
