Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Kilburn buildings, we supply, replace and check aluminium fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Whether the building is in central Kilburn or the wider NW6, NW3, NW2, N6, NW8, NW11 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Cricklewood, Chalk Farm, Camden Town. We cover Kilburn as part of our Greater London coverage.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
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.
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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
If an existing frame in a Kilburn building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Kilburn identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can survey and quote for healthcare buildings, retail and leisure units and other building types in Kilburn.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Survey timing in Kilburn 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.
Yes. We survey and install in Kilburn and across Greater London, including the NW6 district and nearby Cricklewood.
