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.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
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.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Borehamwood, including the WD6, WD7 districts, and in nearby Barnet, Bushey, Potters Bar. Watford, around 8 km from Borehamwood, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
