  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes
  • Fire-stopping and perimeter details

Key checks for Potters Bar projects

External use

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

Deflection and fixings

Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.

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.
