What our aluminium fire-rated screens service includes in Hebburn

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.

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

Key checks for Hebburn projects

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.

External use

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

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.
