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.

Ongoing checks

Residential blocks in England over 11 metres need regular fire door checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; glazed doors are included.

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 to fire-rated glazed doors in Chichester?

England Which rules apply?
