What to check before ordering in Isle of Wight
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.
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.
