Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →We provide fire-rated escape route glazing in Airdrie and across Lanarkshire, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.
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.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Airdrie budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
Glazing into a protected stair needs particular care; the rules depend on whether the stair is part of a protected shaft and how the building is used.
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 Airdrie or the wider ML6, ML5 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Coatbridge, Motherwell, Cumbernauld. Airdrie lies roughly 17 km from East Kilbride, within our Lanarkshire coverage.
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, public buildings and other buildings in Airdrie.
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.
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.
Survey timing in Airdrie depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
