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

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

What to check before ordering fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Cambuslang

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.

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.

Scotland regulations that shape the job

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

FAQs for Cambuslang

Do side panels need safety glass too?

Yes. Glass within 300mm of a door edge and below 1500mm is a critical location for impact safety.

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.

Do you carry out fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Cambuslang?

Yes. We survey and install in Cambuslang and across Lanarkshire, including the G72 district and nearby Rutherglen.

How quickly can you survey in Cambuslang?

Survey timing in Cambuslang depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
