Stair, Lobby & Corridor Glazing in Huddersfield: 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.
- Insulating glass where escape routes require it
- Stair enclosure screens
- Smoke seals and closers on doors
- Evidence for the fire safety file

What to check before ordering fire-rated escape route glazing in Huddersfield
Inspection regimes
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
Smoke control
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
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.
Which rules apply to fire-rated escape route glazing in Huddersfield?
