Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Newport (Gwent) 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 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.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Our Gwent coverage takes in Newport (Gwent) (NP10, NP20, NP19, NP18) and the neighbouring towns of Risca, Cwmbran, Pontypool. Newport (Gwent) is the largest town in our Gwent coverage.
Every quote in Newport (Gwent) identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Newport budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
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.
Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.
We can survey and quote for hotels, healthcare buildings and other building types in Newport (Gwent).
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
