Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Bentley 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.
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.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
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 cover Bentley and the surrounding postcode districts, including DN5, DN1, DN2, DN4. Nearby towns we also serve include Doncaster, Rotherham, Pontefract. Sheffield, around 27 km from Bentley, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
If an existing frame in a Bentley building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Bentley 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 Bentley budgets are not open-ended.
Sector guides below cover hotels, retail and leisure units and other buildings in Bentley.
Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Building work in Bentley follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

A survey in Bentley confirms sizes, access, existing evidence and fixing conditions.
Your quote lists each item with its classification and the evidence it relies on.
We install, photograph seals and fixings before closing up, and hand over the schedule.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
