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 Aldershot calls for glazing tested to resist fire, our fire-rated escape route glazing service covers survey, supply and installation.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
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.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Our Hampshire coverage takes in Aldershot (GU12, GU11, GU9) and the neighbouring towns of Farnham, Farnborough, Fleet. Aldershot is about 59 km from Southampton, the largest town in our Hampshire coverage.
Every quote in Aldershot identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Aldershot building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can survey and quote for public buildings, schools and colleges and other building types in Aldershot.
Yes, if it is fire-rated to the required classification and, for integrity-only glass, within the limits building guidance sets for that position.
Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.
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.
Building work in Aldershot follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
