Key checks for Portsmouth projects
Interim arrangements
Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.
Discontinued products
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.
Read the marks
Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
