A fire-rated glazed door is a fire door with substantial glass in it, from a large vision panel to a fully glazed leaf, supplied as a tested doorset or to a certificated specification. The glass, beads, seals, frame, hinges, closer and lock all form part of the rating.
Coverage around Camden Town includes the NW1, NW1W, NW26, NW5, NW3, N7 districts and nearby Chalk Farm, Holloway, Islington. We cover Camden Town as part of our Greater London coverage.
Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.

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.
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.
