Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Cheshunt 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.
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.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Cheshunt, including the EN8, EN7, EN9, EN10 districts, and in nearby Waltham Abbey, Enfield, Hoddesdon. Cheshunt is about 26 km from Watford, the largest town in our Hertfordshire coverage.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Cheshunt budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Cheshunt building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can phase work in Cheshunt around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
We can survey and quote for hotels, care homes and other building types in Cheshunt.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.
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.
Yes. We survey and install in Cheshunt and across Hertfordshire, including the EN8 district and nearby Waltham Abbey.
