Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Kidsgrove 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.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Aluminium systems are commonly available at 30 and 60 minutes; higher ratings are less common and may point to a steel system instead.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
Our Staffordshire coverage takes in Kidsgrove (ST7, ST6) and the neighbouring towns of Congleton, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stoke-on-Trent. Stoke-on-Trent, around 10 km from Kidsgrove, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Every quote in Kidsgrove 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 Kidsgrove budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Kidsgrove building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
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 can survey and quote for hotels, offices and other building types in Kidsgrove.
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Yes. We survey and install in Kidsgrove and across Staffordshire, including the ST7 district and nearby Congleton.
Building work in Kidsgrove 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 Kidsgrove confirms sizes, access, existing evidence and fixing conditions.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
Work is completed to the manufacturer's details and documented for your records.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
