Common questions in East Sussex
Which rules do fire rated glazed screens in Seaford 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.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Seaford.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Seaford?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Can screens be very large?
Size limits depend on the screen system's evidence. Larger screens may need intermediate mullions or transoms.
