Wired Glass Replacement
Replace old Georgian wired glass with modern fire glass.

We replace broken, missing and non-compliant vision panels, upgrade old wired glass, and correct beads and seals that have been fitted wrongly. Where a new vision panel is needed, we only cut it in where the door manufacturer or certification scheme allows it.
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.
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
Ordinary float or toughened glass in a fire door vision panel is a serious defect. We replace it with fire-resistant glass compatible with the door.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Camborne, including the TR14, TR15 districts, and in nearby Redruth, Falmouth, Truro. Camborne lies roughly 6 km from Truro, within our Cornwall coverage.
