Before you order in Dorset

Why it broke

Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.

Read the marks

Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.

Interim arrangements

Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.

England rules for fire glazing

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

Questions from Dorset clients

How quickly can you come out?

Lead times depend on the glass. Integrity glass is often quick to supply; insulating glass is made to size.

Can you replace just one pane?

Yes. Single panes can be replaced on their own, provided the replacement is compatible with the frame's evidence.

How do I know what fire glass I have?

Look for an etched or printed mark in a corner of the pane. Send us a photo with the approximate size.

Which parts of Dorset do you cover?

All of it: Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Christchurch and every district in the BH, DT, SP, GY postcode areas.
