Before you order in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde
Records
We photograph each panel before and after and note the glass marks, so your fire door records stay complete.
Plain glass in a fire door
Ordinary float or toughened glass in a fire door vision panel is a serious defect. We replace it with fire-resistant glass compatible with the door.
The commonest fault
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.
Regulations for Renfrewshire and Inverclyde projects
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.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

Fire Door Vision Panels in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde: questions
How quickly can you replace a panel?
Once we know the door type and glass size, standard integrity panes can often be supplied quickly; insulating glass may take longer to cut to size.
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.
Can I cut a vision panel into a fire door?
Only under the door manufacturer's or certification scheme's instructions. Otherwise the door's rating may no longer be valid.
