Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Middlesbrough buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated escape route glazing wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Corridor subdivision doors and double-swing doors normally need vision panels so people do not collide.
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
Doors on escape routes usually need smoke seals as well as fire resistance, so the smoke-control classification matters too.
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.
Our North Yorkshire coverage takes in Middlesbrough (TS1, TS4, TS2, TS5, TS23, TS3) and the neighbouring towns of Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees, Thornaby-on-Tees. Middlesbrough lies roughly 69 km from York, within our North Yorkshire coverage.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Middlesbrough identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Middlesbrough around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
We can survey and quote for public buildings, care homes and other building types in Middlesbrough.
Doors that subdivide corridors or swing both ways normally do, and the glass must be fire-rated to suit the door.
