Fire Door Glazing in Ashford: questions
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.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Ashford (Kent)?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Ashford (Kent) is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those 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.
How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Ashford (Kent)?
It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.
