What our aluminium fire-rated screens service includes in Ebbw Vale

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
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system

How we work in Ebbw Vale

Wales rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Wales, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

If an existing frame in a Ebbw Vale building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

What to check before ordering aluminium fire-rated screens in Ebbw Vale

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.

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.

Deflection and fixings

Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.

Wales regulations that shape the job

Wales Which rules apply?

Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.

Sectors we cover in Ebbw Vale
