Common questions in Cornwall
Do you cover Falmouth?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit fire rated glazed screens throughout Falmouth and the rest of Cornwall, including TR11 and nearby Truro.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Falmouth.
Which rules do fire rated glazed screens in Falmouth need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Does a fanlight above a fire door need to be fire-rated?
Yes, if it is part of the fire-resisting wall or door assembly. Ordinary glass above a fire door defeats the door.
