Fire Door Glazing in Inverness

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Inverness, our fire door glazing repairs follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

In short: fire door glazing is the fire-resisting glass, beads and glazing seals in a glazed fire door or vision panel. The whole glazing system, not just the glass, must match what the door was tested with.

Questions from Inverness clients

Which fire safety law applies in Inverness?

In Scotland, fire safety duties for workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, with new work designed to the Scottish building standards.

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Inverness?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Inverness 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.
