Glazed fire doors: our service in Bognor Regis
Our glazed fire doors service in Bognor Regis is simple: a survey, a fixed quote, certified products and an installation finished to the manufacturer's evidence.
Buildings in and around Bognor Regis range from low-rise blocks of flats to HMOs and schools. 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 Bognor Regis often need vision panels, and each one has to use fire-rated glass in a tested system. When a vision panel breaks in a Bognor Regis building, we re-glaze it to the door's original glazing system rather than a near match.
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.
Each installation includes:
- Re-glazing of damaged vision panels to the original system
- Glazed doorsets with certified apertures
- Fire-rated glass suited to the rating and location
- Safety glazing and visibility considerations
Rules and responsibilities in Bognor Regis
The rules that apply to fire doors in Bognor Regis are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Bognor Regis block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Questions
Is Bognor Regis within your coverage area?
It is. We cover Bognor Regis in West Sussex and neighbouring towns such as Chichester. There is no charge for the survey.
How quickly can you survey in Bognor Regis?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
Can any toughened glass go in a fire door?
No. Fire doors need fire-rated glass of the type and size covered by the door's test evidence, fitted with the matching beads and seals. Standard toughened glass is not fire resisting.
Can you add a vision panel to my existing fire door?
Only if the door's certification allows an aperture of that size and position. Most existing doors cannot be modified this way, so a new glazed doorset is usually needed.
