Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →If a building in Crowthorne needs aluminium fire-rated screens, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

Aluminium fire-rated screens are glazed walls built from aluminium profiles that have been tested with fire-resistant glass and insulating inserts. They suit offices, healthcare and education buildings that want a clean, modern frame matching the rest of the glazing.
Aluminium fire screens can be visually matched to non-rated partitions elsewhere, so a floor reads as one design while only some walls are fire-rated.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Crowthorne, including the RG45, GU47, RG12, GU46, RG40 districts, and in nearby Sandhurst, Yateley, Camberley. Crowthorne lies roughly 16 km from Reading, within our Berkshire coverage.
We can phase work in Crowthorne around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
If an existing frame in a Crowthorne building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Crowthorne 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.
We can survey and quote for industrial units, retail and leisure units and other building types in Crowthorne.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Building work in Crowthorne follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Yes. We survey and install in Crowthorne and across Berkshire, including the RG45 district and nearby Sandhurst.

We visit Crowthorne to measure, record existing marks and check the frames and substrate.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
We install, photograph seals and fixings before closing up, and hand over the schedule.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
