Wired Glass on Nominal Fire Doors

[davey22]

Hi all , I’ve recently carried out a survey on an apartment block, that has recently had a refurb . All the doors are existing with no test evidence or manufacturers documentation. They are all nominal suggested Fd30s. Only works done to them are to change any components that may have failed I.e strips missing , closer not working etc . 

The lobby doors have glazing but no fire rated markings . The glass is wired . Would I be safe to say this is a pass and write a caveat, to say I’ve pass off the history and integrity wired glass, has in relation to holding back fire . Or fail , leaving the customer with no option to replace ??? (Seems extreme ) .

Thanks in advance
