Southampton FAQs

Do you work in occupied buildings in Southampton?

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

Can I reuse the existing beads?

Only if they are the correct fire-rated type, undamaged and suit the new glass. Often they are replaced as part of the system.

Which fire safety law applies in Southampton?

Southampton 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.

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.
