Area above the frame of the fire door?

[SidM]

In a letter how would you refer to the area above a fire door that is not fire stopped to true ceiling height?

[kurnal]

Is this

-a panel within the door frame above the level of the door leaf or
-that part of the wall where it passes above the door or
-a partition that does not extend through the void formed by a suspended ceiling to the height of the true ceiling above?

[SidM]

It is the panel within the door frame above the level of the door leaf which is on a stairway enclosure.  The panle stops at the height of the flase ceiling

Transom infill?

You could say that the wall or partition containing the 1/2frsc door should be minimum 1/2fr to structure ceiling and capable of withstanding the passage of smoke at ambient temperatures.

Aunti lin calls them overpanels. With glass in them they are called fanlights or borrowed lights.

Transom infill?

Some of my brigades very old standard letters name them 'transom lights'.

But that`s OK if the person receiving the letter knows what is meant.

[Redone]

Very true DD, must add that on the follow up inspection, never came across the work not done.

[redbadge]

try "glazed fanlight above door" - should be pretty clear

Take a photo of it and include this in your document -then there can be no misunderstanding.
