Fire Door Glazing in Manchester: questions

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.

Do you cover the area around Manchester?

Yes. As well as Manchester itself we cover nearby towns including Salford, Old Trafford and Failsworth.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Manchester?

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