We supply and install glazed screens, doors and panels on escape routes in offices, flats, schools and healthcare buildings, working from the fire strategy so integrity and insulation are used in the right places, and smoke control is maintained.
We cover Worcester and the surrounding postcode districts, including WR1, WR2, WR4, WR5, WR3. Nearby towns we also serve include Droitwich, Great Malvern, Stourport-on-Severn. Worcester is the main town we cover in Worcestershire.
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
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.
