Prestwich FAQs

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Prestwich?

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Prestwich?

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