Wired Glass Replacement
Replace old Georgian wired glass with modern fire glass.
Learn more →For Willesden buildings, we supply, replace and check fire door vision panels wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Willesden around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
If your fire door inspection report lists vision panel defects, send it to us and we will quote item by item.
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.
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.
Our Greater London coverage takes in Willesden (NW10, W10, NW6, NW2, W12, W3) and the neighbouring towns of Cricklewood, Notting Hill, Shepherds Bush. We cover Willesden as part of our Greater London coverage.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
We can survey and quote for schools and colleges, blocks of flats and other building types in Willesden.
Only under the door manufacturer's or certification scheme's instructions. Otherwise the door's rating may no longer be valid.
Once we know the door type and glass size, standard integrity panes can often be supplied quickly; insulating glass may take longer to cut to size.
Survey timing in Willesden depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
