What every Pitsea quote includes
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Pitsea building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Key checks for Pitsea projects
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.
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.

FAQs for Pitsea
Will the frames match our other glazing?
