Aluminium Fire-Rated Screens in Longton: 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.

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

Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

Deflection and fixings

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

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.

External use

Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.
