What's involved with fire door vision panels in St Neots
A fire door vision panel is the glazed opening in a fire door that lets people see through it. It is part of the door's fire rating: the glass, beads, glazing seals and the size and position of the opening all have to match the door's test or certification evidence.
- Photographic records for your fire door log
- Vision panel kits from the door manufacturer where available
- Wired glass to modern fire glass upgrades
- Bead fixing to the door evidence
Before you order fire door vision panels: what matters
Wired glass
Old wired glass often provides integrity but not impact safety. Upgrading to modern fire glass with an impact classification removes a common risk in schools and corridors.
Inspection follow-up
If your fire door inspection report lists vision panel defects, send it to us and we will quote item by item.
Cutting new panels
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
