Reclaimed doors and windows and building regulations

I have bought some lovely reclaimed metal framed windows and doors with the intention of using them on converted outside toilet and a joining room, that will be incorporated in to the main building. I am aware that the this project will require building regulations approval, but how does this apply to reclaimed materials especially glass?

They will not meet with building regs as the frames will not have the correct U value.
