Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Lytham St Annes: 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.

  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Handover evidence
  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

Door hardware

Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.

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.

External use

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