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.
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.
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.
