Glazed steel door systems must comply with relevant fire, security, escape, and external product standards, depending on their application and performance specification. Because glazing forms part of the door assembly, both the steel frame and glazing system must be certified together where required.

Fire Resistance (If Fire Rated)

For fire rated glazed steel doors:

• Internal doors must be tested to BS EN 1634-1
• External fire doors must comply with BS EN 16034, used in conjunction with BS EN 14351-1

The fire rated glazing, seals, beads, and hardware must form part of the tested and certified door set. Common classifications include FD60 and FD120.

Security Certification (If Specified)

Where enhanced security is required, glazed steel doors may be tested to:

• PAS 24 – Enhanced residential security
• LPS 1175 – Graded resistance to forced entry

Security-rated glazing systems must be included within the certified configuration.

Emergency Escape Compliance (If Applicable)

If the door forms part of an escape route:
