Rules that apply in Northern Ireland
Bedroom and escape windows
Fire safety in new building work in Northern Ireland is covered by the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 and Technical Booklet E. Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.
Electric roller grilles
Electric grilles need a suitable supply wired to BS 7671 and in line with the Northern Ireland Building Regulations where they apply. Powered grilles should have working safety devices and regular maintenance.
