Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Newquay buildings, we supply, replace and check aluminium fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Every quote in Newquay identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Newquay budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Fire-rated aluminium profiles contain insulating and intumescent inserts that standard profiles do not. Swapping in a standard section to save cost removes the rating.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
We cover Newquay and the surrounding postcode districts, including TR7, TR8. Nearby towns we also serve include Truro, St Austell, Redruth. Newquay lies roughly 23 km from Truro, within our Cornwall coverage.
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.
Sector guides below cover retail and leisure units, hotels and other buildings in Newquay.
Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.

Yes. We survey and install in Newquay and across Cornwall, including the TR7 district and nearby Truro.
