What to check before ordering fire glass replacement in Dover
Discontinued products
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.
Interim arrangements
Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.
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.
