Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →When a fire strategy, inspection report or building control comment in Crowthorne calls for glazing tested to resist fire, our fire-rated escape route glazing service covers survey, supply and installation.

We supply and install glazed screens, doors and panels on escape routes in offices, flats, schools and healthcare buildings, working from the fire strategy so integrity and insulation are used in the right places, and smoke control is maintained.
Our Berkshire coverage takes in Crowthorne (RG45, GU47, RG12, GU46, RG40) and the neighbouring towns of Sandhurst, Yateley, Camberley. Crowthorne is about 16 km from Reading, the largest town in our Berkshire coverage.
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
Building guidance limits the amount and position of integrity-only glass on protected routes because people may need to pass close to it while fire is on the other side. Insulating glass removes most of those limits.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
Every quote in Crowthorne identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Crowthorne budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Crowthorne building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can survey and quote for retail and leisure units, public buildings and other building types in Crowthorne.
Yes, with phasing and temporary arrangements agreed with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.
Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
