Fire Resistance

The glazed VisionGuard doors offer up to 2 hours of fire resistance (BS EN 1634-1), and has been established within various fire-resistance classes having been tested against the official guidelines of BS476: Part 22: 1987.

The core between the steel profiles is insulating, and can therefore reduce how much heat is transferred from the side of the door that faces a potential blaze. If required, a sliding glazed steel door is also available with this range, with a fire resistance of up to 30 minutes. 
EI fire rating is also available if required, details on request. Single glazed doorsets are also an option if required.
 

Burglar Resistance 

As the VisionGuard is manufactured to defy against any potential fire for a certain duration of time, this naturally strengthens the door and can in-turn resist both fire and intruders. The doors are produced in accordance to the required burglary resistance classes between RC3 - RC5. Many glazed doors are used as a main entrance to a commercial building and security is very important, this is recognised in the VisionGuard glass door.

Additionally, the glazed steel door has been certified as Secured by Design, an initiative supported by the Police that means the door has undergone thorough testing to resist potential intruders and break-ins.
