What's involved with aluminium fire-rated screens in Newburn
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.

Key checks for Newburn projects
Deflection and fixings
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
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.
Door hardware
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
