Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Clevedon: what's included

Aluminium softens at a lower temperature than steel, so fire-rated aluminium systems rely on specific internal inserts, reinforcements and glazing details. We install only the tested system as a whole, in anodised or powder-coated finishes, with doors and side panels where the evidence allows.

  • Matching fire-rated doors within the system
  • Handover evidence
  • Tested aluminium fire screen systems
  • Integrity and insulating glass to the system schedule

Key checks for Clevedon projects

Deflection and fixings

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

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.

Ratings available

Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
