We replace broken, missing and non-compliant vision panels, upgrade old wired glass, and correct beads and seals that have been fitted wrongly. Where a new vision panel is needed, we only cut it in where the door manufacturer or certification scheme allows it.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Thetford budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Thetford identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Thetford around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
We photograph each panel before and after and note the glass marks, so your fire door records stay complete.
A new aperture can invalidate a door's certification unless the manufacturer's instructions allow it. We check before cutting.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Thetford, including the IP24 districts, and in nearby Bury St Edmunds, Newmarket, Stowmarket. Norwich, around 44 km from Thetford, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
