Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Shepherds Bush: what's included
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.
- Fire-stopping and perimeter details
- Tested aluminium fire screen systems
- Matching fire-rated doors within the system
- Anodised and powder-coated finishes

Key checks for Shepherds Bush projects
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
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.
External use
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
