What's involved with aluminium fire-rated screens in Scunthorpe
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
- Matching fire-rated doors within the system
- Anodised and powder-coated finishes
Key checks for Scunthorpe projects
Ratings available
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
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.
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.
Which rules apply to aluminium fire-rated screens in Scunthorpe?
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.
