What our fire door vision panels service includes in Derry / Londonderry
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.
- Correct glazing seals and bead profiles
- Wired glass to modern fire glass upgrades
- Like-for-like fire glass replacement in vision panels

The commonest fault
