Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

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.

Matching non-rated glazing

Aluminium fire screens can be visually matched to non-rated partitions elsewhere, so a floor reads as one design while only some walls are fire-rated.

External use

Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.

FAQs for Waterlooville

Is aluminium suitable for fire-rated glazing?

Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.

Will the frames match our other glazing?

Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Waterlooville?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

How quickly can you survey in Waterlooville?

Survey timing in Waterlooville 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.
