Before you order fire-rated fanlights and side panels: what matters
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.
Often overlooked
Fanlights and side panels can be missed when fire doors are upgraded, leaving ordinary glass beside a new fire door.
