Common questions in Lowestoft

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 cover the area around Lowestoft?

Yes. As well as Lowestoft itself we cover nearby towns including Great Yarmouth, Norwich and Bowthorpe.

Which fire safety law applies in Lowestoft?

Lowestoft 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.

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.
