Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Melton Mowbray: 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.

  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Handover evidence
  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

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.

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.
