What to check before ordering fire door vision panels in Prestwich
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.
Inspection follow-up
If your fire door inspection report lists vision panel defects, send it to us and we will quote item by item.
Cutting new panels
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
