Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.

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.
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.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
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.
Whether the building is in central Middlesbrough or the wider TS1, TS4, TS2, TS5, TS23, TS3 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees, Thornaby-on-Tees. Middlesbrough lies roughly 69 km from York, within our North Yorkshire coverage.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Middlesbrough budgets are not open-ended.
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.
We can survey and quote for retail and leisure units, schools and colleges and other building types in Middlesbrough.
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Survey timing in Middlesbrough 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 plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

We measure each opening in Middlesbrough and check what the existing frames can accept.
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.
