Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.

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.
In England, blocks of flats over 11 metres need regular checks of communal fire doors, including glazed ones.
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.
Our South Yorkshire coverage takes in Chapeltown (S35, S74, S5) and the neighbouring towns of Rotherham, Sheffield, Barnsley. Chapeltown is about 9 km from Sheffield, the largest town in our South Yorkshire coverage.
If an existing frame in a Chapeltown building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can phase work in Chapeltown around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Chapeltown budgets are not open-ended.
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.
