What to check before ordering in Lanarkshire
Cutting new panels
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
Records
We photograph each panel before and after and note the glass marks, so your fire door records stay complete.
Wired glass
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.

Scotland rules for fire glazing
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 Lanarkshire
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.
Is wired glass acceptable in a fire door?
It may provide integrity, but it often fails impact safety requirements. Replacement with modern fire glass is usually recommended.
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.
Which parts of Lanarkshire do you cover?
