Fire Door Glazing in Ayrshire: questions
Can I add a vision panel to an existing fire door?
Only if the door's evidence allows a panel of that size and position, and it is fitted with a matched glazing system.
Can I reuse the existing beads?
Only if they are the correct fire-rated type, undamaged and suit the new glass. Often they are replaced as part of the system.
Does regulation 10 apply in Ayrshire?
No. Ayrshire is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.
