What our fire-rated fanlights and side panels service includes in Peckham

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.

  • Borrowed lights in fire-resisting walls
  • Glazed side panels beside fire doors
  • Glass, beads and seals to the frame evidence
  • Records for your fire safety file

Before you order fire-rated fanlights and side panels: what matters

Flat entrance doors

In blocks of flats, the glazing around flat entrance doors forms part of the protection of the common parts and needs to match the door's performance.

Borrowed lights

Internal windows between rooms and corridors are a frequent survey finding in older offices and schools.

Ventilation grilles

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

Which rules apply to fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Peckham?

Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights: Peckham questions

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 just replace the glass?

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

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

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