England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

External use

Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.

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.

Deflection and fixings

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