  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule
  • Fire-stopping and perimeter details
  • Handover evidence

Key checks for Rhondda 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.

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.

Which rules apply to aluminium fire-rated screens in Rhondda?

Wales Which rules apply?

Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.

Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.
