Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →If a building in Rushden 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.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
We cover Rushden and the surrounding postcode districts, including NN10, NN9. Nearby towns we also serve include Wellingborough, Kettering, Bedford. Northampton, around 20 km from Rushden, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Rushden budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
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 offices, hotels and other building types in Rushden.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Yes. We survey and install in Rushden and across Northamptonshire, including the NN10 district and nearby Wellingborough.
Survey timing in Rushden 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.
