What our aluminium fire-rated screens service includes in Rickmansworth

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.

  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes
  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule

What to check before ordering aluminium fire-rated screens in Rickmansworth

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.

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.

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.
