Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →If a building in Lincoln needs aluminium fire-rated screens, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

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.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Whether the building is in central Lincoln or the wider LN2 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Gainsborough, Newark-on-Trent, Retford. Lincoln is the largest town in our Lincolnshire coverage.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Lincoln budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Lincoln identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
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.
Aluminium fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Lincoln, including blocks of flats and care homes.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.
Survey timing in Lincoln depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Yes. We survey and install in Lincoln and across Lincolnshire, including the LN2 district and nearby Gainsborough.

We visit Lincoln to measure, record existing marks and check the frames and substrate.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
We install, photograph seals and fixings before closing up, and hand over the schedule.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
