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.
Coverage around Chelsea includes the SW10, SW3, SW7, SW1X, SW5, W1M districts and nearby Battersea, Fulham, Pimlico. Chelsea is one of the Greater London districts we cover.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
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.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
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.

Yes. We survey and install in Chelsea and across Greater London, including the SW10 district and nearby Battersea.
