Fire-Rated Screens & Fanlights for South Shields buildings
We cover South Shields and nearby Tynemouth for fire rated glazed screens, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Where possible we combine South Shields surveys with other visits in Tyne and Wear, such as Tynemouth and North Shields, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

Fire doors in South Shields sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.

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.

Steel or timber screens?
