What our aluminium fire-rated screens service includes in Brentwood

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.

  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes
  • Handover evidence
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule

What to check before ordering aluminium fire-rated screens in Brentwood

Door hardware

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

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.

Deflection and fixings

Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.

Brentwood coverage and nearby towns

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Brentwood, including the CM14, CM13, CM15 districts, and in nearby Billericay, Hornchurch, Romford. Brentwood lies roughly 30 km from Southend-on-Sea, within our Essex coverage.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Brentwood around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

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.
