Key checks for Perth projects

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.

Closers and gaps

Self-closing devices and correct gaps are part of the performance. We set them at installation and record them.

Glazed area limits

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

Scotland regulations that shape the job

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.

What every Perth quote includes

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Perth identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Scotland rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Perth building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Perth building types

Sector guides below cover hotels, offices and other buildings in Perth.

FAQs for Perth

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.

Do you carry out fire-rated glazed doors in Perth?

Yes. We survey and install in Perth and across Tayside, including the PH1 district and nearby Glenrothes.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Perth?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
