Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights in Fulham: 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.

  • Records for your fire safety file
  • Complete replacement frames where needed
  • Borrowed lights in fire-resisting walls
  • Glass, beads and seals to the frame evidence

Key checks for Fulham projects

Ventilation grilles

Grilles or openings in fanlights must be fire-rated or removed if the wall is fire-resisting.

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.

Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights: Fulham questions

Can you just replace the glass?

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

What is a borrowed light?

An internal window that shares daylight between rooms or with a corridor. In a fire-resisting wall it must be fire-rated.

Can you price fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Fulham 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 Fulham?

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