Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Burnham-on-Sea buildings, we supply, replace and check aluminium fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
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.
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.
Whether the building is in central Burnham-on-Sea or the wider TA8, TA9 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Weston-super-Mare, Bridgwater, Clevedon. Burnham-on-Sea is about 47 km from Bath, the largest town in our Somerset coverage.
If an existing frame in a Burnham-on-Sea building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Burnham-on-Sea identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Burnham-on-Sea budgets are not open-ended.
We can survey and quote for blocks of flats, care homes and other building types in Burnham-on-Sea.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
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 Burnham-on-Sea and across Somerset, including the TA8 district and nearby Weston-super-Mare.
Survey timing in Burnham-on-Sea 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.
