Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights: Huntingdon questions

Can you just replace the glass?

Sometimes, if the existing frame is suitable. We check the frame before recommending glass-only replacement.

Does the glass above a fire door need to be fire-rated?

If the wall or door assembly is fire-resisting, yes. Ordinary glass above or beside a fire door creates a weak point.

Can you price fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Huntingdon 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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Huntingdon?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
