Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
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.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
