Glazed fire doors in Risca

Getting glazed fire doors right in Risca

If you need glazed fire doors in Risca, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.

Buildings in and around Risca range from light industrial buildings to small offices and small blocks of flats. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.

Schools, offices and care settings in Risca often need vision panels, and each one has to use fire-rated glass in a tested system. We check glazed doors in Risca for both fire performance and safety glazing before recommending repair or replacement.

Safety and visibility

Glass in doors also has to meet safety glazing rules, so the fire-rated glass chosen needs to be suitable for impact as well. For schools and care settings we also consider where the panel sits so that children or wheelchair users can see through it.

What you get:

• Glazed doorsets with certified apertures
• Fire-rated glass suited to the rating and location
• Evidence of the glazing system fitted
• Re-glazing of damaged vision panels to the original system
