Before you order fire-rated glazed doors: what matters

Doorset, not just a door

The safest route is a complete doorset with frame and hardware tested together. Mixing a leaf from one source with a frame from another needs evidence that covers the combination.

Accessibility

Opening forces, vision panel zones and contrast need to work with accessibility guidance as well as fire.

Glazed area limits

Each door design allows a maximum glazed area and aperture positions. Bigger glass needs a door tested for it.

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

Wales Which rules apply?

Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
