Fire Door Vision Panels: Royton questions
Can I cut a vision panel into a fire door?
Only under the door manufacturer's or certification scheme's instructions. Otherwise the door's rating may no longer be valid.
How quickly can you replace a panel?
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.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Royton?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Royton?
Survey timing in Royton 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.
