What to check before ordering fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Selby
Impact safety
Side panels near doors fall in critical locations for impact safety, so the fire glass must also have the right impact classification.
Often overlooked
Fanlights and side panels can be missed when fire doors are upgraded, leaving ordinary glass beside a new fire door.
Ventilation grilles
Grilles or openings in fanlights must be fire-rated or removed if the wall is fire-resisting.

FAQs for Selby
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 Selby?
Yes. We survey and install in Selby and across North Yorkshire, including the YO8 district and nearby Goole.
How quickly can you survey in Selby?
