Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Letchworth Garden City: what's included
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
- Anodised and powder-coated finishes
How we work in Letchworth Garden City
Rated systems, not just rated glass
Every quote in Letchworth Garden City identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Honest about unknowns
If an existing frame in a Letchworth Garden City building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
England rules applied
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters
External use
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
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.
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.
