Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights in Maidenhead: what's included
Fanlights, side panels and borrowed lights are the glazed panels above and beside doors, or set into internal walls to share daylight between rooms. Where the wall or door around them is fire-resisting, the glazing must be fire-rated too, or it becomes the weak point.
- Complete replacement frames where needed
- Glazed side panels beside fire doors
- Glass, beads and seals to the frame evidence
- Records for your fire safety file
How we work in Maidenhead
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Maidenhead identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Evidence you can file
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Maidenhead building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Before you order fire-rated fanlights and side panels: what matters
Upgrade or replace?
If the existing frame can be shown to be suitable, new glass and seals may be enough; otherwise a complete rated frame is the reliable answer.
Often overlooked
Fanlights and side panels can be missed when fire doors are upgraded, leaving ordinary glass beside a new fire door.
Borrowed lights
Internal windows between rooms and corridors are a frequent survey finding in older offices and schools.
