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

- Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
- Tested aluminium fire screen systems
- Handover evidence
- 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.
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.
England regulations that shape the job
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.

Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.
