Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Welwyn Garden City: what's included
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.
- Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
- Handover evidence
- Anodised and powder-coated finishes
- Matching fire-rated doors within the system
What to check before ordering aluminium fire-rated screens in Welwyn Garden City
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
External use
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
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.

England regulations that shape the job
England Which rules apply?
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.
