Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters
Door hardware
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
Ratings available
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.

Which rules apply to aluminium fire-rated screens in Wokingham?
England Which rules apply?
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.

FAQs for Wokingham
Is aluminium suitable for fire-rated glazing?
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Can aluminium fire screens be used outside?
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
How quickly can you survey in Wokingham?
Survey timing in Wokingham 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.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Wokingham?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
