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.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
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.
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.
We cover Hove and the surrounding postcode districts, including BN3, BN88, BN50, BN41, BN1. Nearby towns we also serve include Brighton, Portslade, Burgess Hill. Brighton, around 2 km from Hove, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
