Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →We provide fire-rated escape route glazing in Camden Town and across Greater London, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.

Escape route glazing is fire-rated glass in the walls and doors of protected stairs, lobbies and corridors, the routes people rely on to leave a building safely. It has to hold back fire and smoke for the rated time, and on many routes it has to keep heat away from people passing it as well.
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
We plan installation so escape routes stay available while the building is occupied, or agree temporary arrangements with whoever is responsible for fire safety in the building.
Whether the building is in central Camden Town or the wider NW1, NW1W, NW26, NW5, NW3, N7 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Chalk Farm, Holloway, Islington. Camden Town sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Chalk Farm.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Camden Town budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
If an existing frame in a Camden Town building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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.
We can survey and quote for offices, healthcare buildings and other building types in Camden Town.
Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.
Because people escaping may pass right beside the glass. Insulating glass limits the temperature rise on the escape side, so people can pass it more safely.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Building work in Camden Town follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
