Fire Door Glazing in West Sussex: questions
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 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 West Sussex?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. West Sussex is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
