  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Fire-stopping and perimeter details
  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes

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

Matching non-rated glazing

Aluminium fire screens can be visually matched to non-rated partitions elsewhere, so a floor reads as one design while only some walls are fire-rated.

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.

Fire glazing rules in England

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.

Questions about aluminium fire-rated screens in Battersea

Is aluminium suitable for fire-rated glazing?

Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.

Can aluminium fire screens be used outside?

Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.

How quickly can you survey in Battersea?

Survey timing in Battersea depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.

Can you price aluminium fire-rated screens in Battersea from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
