Fire Door Glazing in Torquay: 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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Torquay?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Torquay is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

How can I tell if fire door glass is fire-rated?

Fire-rated glass is usually etched or labelled with the product name and standard in a corner. Wired glass may be fire-rated but not all is. If there is no mark, the inspection records the glass as unverified.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Torquay?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.
