What our fire door vision panels service includes in Portadown

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.

  • Bead fixing to the door evidence
  • Wired glass to modern fire glass upgrades
  • Like-for-like fire glass replacement in vision panels
  • Photographic records for your fire door log

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.

Cutting new panels

A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.

Inspection follow-up

If your fire door inspection report lists vision panel defects, send it to us and we will quote item by item.
