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.
Opening forces, vision panel zones and contrast need to work with accessibility guidance as well as fire.
Residential blocks in England over 11 metres need regular fire door checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; glazed doors are included.
Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.
