What's involved with aluminium fire-rated screens in Bearsden

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.

How we work in Bearsden

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Bearsden building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Scotland rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Fixed written quotes

After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bearsden budgets are not open-ended.

Key checks for Bearsden projects

Inserts make the rating

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.

Door hardware

Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.

Matching non-rated 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.
