What to check before ordering integrity fire glass in Corby

Building guidance restricts how much integrity-only glass can be used on protected escape routes and where it can sit. Check the route before choosing E glass.

Integrity glass costs a fraction of insulated glass and fits slimmer frames, which is why specifying it correctly matters.
