Replacement and new vision panels fitted to the door's evidence.
Learn more →We provide fire-rated glazed doors in Bideford and across Devon, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
We supply and install glazed fire doorsets in timber, steel and aluminium, single and double, as stand-alone doors or within glazed screens. We match the door to the rating and duty of its position, and fit it to the manufacturer's installation instructions.
Self-closing devices and correct gaps are part of the performance. We set them at installation and record them.
Residential blocks in England over 11 metres need regular fire door checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; glazed doors are included.
The safest route is a complete doorset with frame and hardware tested together. Mixing a leaf from one source with a frame from another needs evidence that covers the combination.
Whether the building is in central Bideford or the wider EX39 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Barnstaple, Tiverton, Exeter. Plymouth, around 72 km from Bideford, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bideford budgets are not open-ended.
We can phase work in Bideford around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
We can survey and quote for public buildings, schools and colleges and other building types in Bideford.
