Fire Door Glazing in Gloucestershire: questions

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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Gloucestershire?

Gloucestershire is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Gloucestershire?

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