Broken Fire Glass Replacement in Edinburgh: what's included

What to check before ordering fire glass replacement in Edinburgh
Why it broke
Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.
Insulating glass lead times
EI glass is laminated to size, so it can take longer to supply than integrity glass. We give you a realistic date.
Interim arrangements
Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.
Fire glazing rules in Scotland
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.

Broken Fire Glass Replacement: Edinburgh questions
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 quickly can you come out?
Lead times depend on the glass. Integrity glass is often quick to supply; insulating glass is made to size.
Do you carry out fire glass replacement in Edinburgh?
Yes. We survey and install in Edinburgh and across Edinburgh and the Lothians, including the EH1 district and nearby Musselburgh.
Can you price fire glass replacement in Edinburgh from photos?
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
