April 12, 20197 yr comment_13929 hi can any one advise me re do new fire doors have to have 2 spy holes - one for normal height & one for wheelchair users Report
April 17, 20197 yr comment_13947 I would advise you to consult Part M of the Building Regulations with regard to requirements for spy-viewers for wheelchair users. Fire performance tests have been conducted with more than one spy-viewer installed in one fire door leaf, but you should check with the company that manufactured the fire door before carrying out any installation work.

April 17, 20197 yr comment_13950 Spy holes are a security matter, not a fire safety matter unless you are talking about vision panels? Report
April 22, 20197 yr comment_13982 The fire safety guidance says if you are going to fit a spy viewer it has to meet a certain standard to ensure it does not compromise the fire resistance of the fire door and that is why I say it is a security matter. It doesn't say, you need eye viewers and certainly not how many. Report
