Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Basildon: what's included

Aluminium softens at a lower temperature than steel, so fire-rated aluminium systems rely on specific internal inserts, reinforcements and glazing details. We install only the tested system as a whole, in anodised or powder-coated finishes, with doors and side panels where the evidence allows.

  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Fire-stopping and perimeter details

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

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.

External use

Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
