Questions from Derry clients

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Derry?

The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require fire safety measures, including fire doors, to be maintained.

What is the difference between integrity and insulation glass?

Integrity glass stops flames and smoke but allows heat through. Insulating glass also limits heat transfer, which matters where people or materials are close to the door.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Derry?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Derry can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
