Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.

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.
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.
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Motherwell, including the ML1, ML4, ML3 districts, and in nearby Hamilton, Wishaw, Coatbridge. East Kilbride, around 12 km from Motherwell, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Motherwell 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.
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.
Fire-rated escape route glazing applies to many building types in Motherwell, including offices and schools and colleges.
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.
Yes. We survey and install in Motherwell and across Lanarkshire, including the ML1 district and nearby Hamilton.
