Fire Door Vision Panels
Replacement and new vision panels fitted to the door's evidence.
Learn more →For Swindon buildings, we supply, replace and check wired glass replacement wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

Schools, hospitals, housing blocks and older offices often still have wired glass in doors and corridors. We survey it, confirm what the frames can accept, and replace it with clear integrity or insulating glass that is compatible with the frame and carries an impact classification.
Old frames may not have evidence for modern fire glass. We assess them and recommend frame replacement where the evidence cannot be established.
Doors, side panels and low-level glazing in busy corridors, sports halls and schools are usually replaced first.
Modern fire glass is clear, so replacements also improve visibility and appearance.
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.
Coverage around Swindon includes the SN1, SN25, SN2 districts and nearby Cirencester, Chippenham, Witney. Swindon is the main town we cover in Wiltshire.
If an existing frame in a Swindon building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Swindon identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Swindon budgets are not open-ended.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, blocks of flats and other buildings in Swindon.
When broken by impact it can cause serious cuts. That is why it is often replaced in doors and low-level positions.
There is no blanket ban, but glazing in critical locations must meet impact safety rules, and duty holders must manage the risk. Replacement is often the practical answer.
Yes. We survey and install in Swindon and across Wiltshire, including the SN1 district and nearby Cirencester.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
