Before you order fire door vision panels: what matters
Plain glass in a fire door
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.
The commonest fault
Missing or wrong glazing seals and loose beads are among the most frequent defects found in fire door inspections. They are quick to fix properly once the door's specification is known.
Cutting new panels
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.

Scotland regulations that shape the job
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

FAQs for Bearsden
Can a broken fire door vision panel be replaced?
Yes. The replacement must be fire-resistant glass of a type the door's evidence allows, fitted with the correct beads and seals.
Does a fire door need a vision panel?
Not always. Building guidance expects vision panels in doors that subdivide corridors and in double-swing doors, and accessibility guidance favours them in many circulation doors.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Bearsden?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Can you price fire door vision panels in Bearsden from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
