Before you order fire-rated glazed doors: what matters
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.
Accessibility
Opening forces, vision panel zones and contrast need to work with accessibility guidance as well as fire.
England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
