What to check before ordering in Nottinghamshire
Escape route doors
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.
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 in England?
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.
Fire-Rated Glazed Doors in Nottinghamshire: questions
Can you add glass to my existing fire door?
Cutting new apertures into a fire door is only acceptable when done under the door manufacturer's or certification scheme's instructions. Often a new doorset is the safer answer.
What does FD30 mean on a glazed door?
FD30 is a UK shorthand for a door providing 30 minutes' fire resistance. Under European classification the same door would be described with an E or EI rating, with S added where smoke control is tested.
Can a fire door be fully glazed?
Yes, some steel, aluminium and timber doorsets are tested with large or full-height glazing. The glass must be the type and size in the evidence.
Can you survey anywhere in Nottinghamshire?
Yes. We can arrange surveys anywhere in Nottinghamshire, including Nottingham and Mansfield, Worksop, Newark-on-Trent, Arnold.
