What's involved with aluminium fire-rated screens in Liverpool

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
  • Fire-stopping and perimeter details
  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Handover evidence

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.

Deflection and fixings

Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.

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.

England regulations that shape the job

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.
