What every Fleet quote includes

Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Fleet building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Work around occupied buildings
We can phase work in Fleet around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Before you order wired glass replacement: what matters
Why replace it
Wired glass breaks into sharp pieces held by wire, and the wire weakens the glass. In doors and low-level panels it is a common source of hand and arm injuries.
Frame checks
Old frames may not have evidence for modern fire glass. We assess them and recommend frame replacement where the evidence cannot be established.
Priority areas
Doors, side panels and low-level glazing in busy corridors, sports halls and schools are usually replaced first.

Which rules apply to wired glass replacement in Fleet?
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.
