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

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.

  • Handover evidence
  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Anodised and powder-coated finishes

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.

Matching non-rated glazing

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.

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.
