What to check before ordering fire-rated glazed doors in Becontree

Ongoing checks

Residential blocks in England over 11 metres need regular fire door checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; glazed doors are included.

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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazed doors in Becontree?

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
