What's involved with aluminium fire-rated screens in Heston
Aluminium softens at a lower temperature than steel, so fire-rated aluminium systems rely on specific internal inserts, reinforcements and glazing details. We install only the tested system as a whole, in anodised or powder-coated finishes, with doors and side panels where the evidence allows.
- Handover evidence
- Fire-stopping and perimeter details
- Matching fire-rated doors within the system

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters
Door hardware
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
External use
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
