What our fire-rated fanlights and side panels service includes in Renfrew
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.
- Glazed side panels beside fire doors
- Records for your fire safety file
- Complete replacement frames where needed
- Fire-rated fanlights above fire doors
Before you order fire-rated fanlights and side panels: what matters
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.
Impact safety
Side panels near doors fall in critical locations for impact safety, so the fire glass must also have the right impact classification.
Fire glazing rules in Scotland
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.

Fanlights, Side Panels & Borrowed Lights: Renfrew questions
Can you just replace the glass?
Sometimes, if the existing frame is suitable. We check the frame before recommending glass-only replacement.
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.
Can you price fire-rated fanlights and side panels in Renfrew 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.
How quickly can you survey in Renfrew?
Survey timing in Renfrew 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.
