Glazed Fire Doors – Is There Such A Thing As A Glass Fire Door?

Historically, glazed fire doors were functional but unattractive, the Georgian wired glass panel a standard feature and familiar sight wether strolling through the corridors of a school ,Hospital or Hotel. They were not made for stylish looks or to compliment the decor of a building but to perform a task if and when required. How they looked was not thought to be of any great importance. But in todays world where the desire for function with style and elegance is part of the spec for a modern building fire doors can now be part of that look and style with absolutely no compromise in safety. Take a look at our portfolio to see our range of modern fire doors.

Fire doors are no longer just for commercial buildings. New building regulations have started to specify fire doors in private homes, both new build and renovations. If you’ve had a loft conversion recently you’ll probably know what we mean. For more information on fire regulations you can find this here.

SWD offer 30 minutes (FD30) and 60 minutes (FD60) protection against fire and fumes. Many of them can incorporate a range of glazed styles designed to compliment our SWD door collection.
