[Fire rated glazing in none fire rated frame]

Thank you for taking the time to read this, 

I have a customer that has a Apartment entrance with a glazed section next to the door, I am changing the door to a Fire door FD30. My question is if I re-glaze the side section with fire glass and gaskets, how legitimate is that? is it worth doing? 

Thanks again 

Jacob

Does the entrance door lead to fresh air or into a common area  and as a fire in the proposed store would pass into the lift shaft then to the other floors that door needs to be a FD30s fire door set or sealed with materials to a 60 minute fire resisting standard.

Thank you for your time, honestly its much appreciated Sir.  I understand what I need to do now.

thanks for the reply really appreciate it, yes the entrance leads to fresh air.  how would a fd30 door be made to 60 minute standard?

 

thanks again

[unused screwed shut door compliance]

I own a blocks of flats in saint annes,  I have recently decided to use a unused small room for storage,  its ground floor the room is 2m x 2m and has a wooden none fire door screwed shut which leads to an old lift.  I am having the entrance door and frame changed to a fd30 one, its entrance in the side of the building, but i am unsure of what i need to have done to the lift entrance because it is unused?

Do i need a fire door and frame then lock it ?  or it ok how it is or should i have it taken out and bricked up or fire board it.

Any help would be most welcome,  thank you for your time.
