Fire Door Glazing in Hove: questions

Do you work in occupied buildings in Hove?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Hove?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Hove 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.

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.
