What to check before ordering fire-rated glazed doors in Seaford
Escape route doors
Doors that subdivide corridors and doors that swing both ways normally need vision panels, and integrity-only glass in doors may be limited by building guidance on escape routes.
Glazed area limits
Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.
Closers and gaps
Self-closing devices and correct gaps are part of the performance. We set them at installation and record them.
