Common questions in Birkenhead

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.

Can you price remedial work in Birkenhead from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Birkenhead, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Which fire safety law applies in Birkenhead?

Birkenhead 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.
