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.
If an existing frame in a Tyldesley building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
If your fire door inspection report lists vision panel defects, send it to us and we will quote item by item.
We photograph each panel before and after and note the glass marks, so your fire door records stay complete.
