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.
We can phase work in Wednesbury around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Wednesbury budgets are not open-ended.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
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.
Some aluminium systems are tested for external facades, others for internal use only. We match the system to the position.

Aluminium fire-rated screens applies to many building types in Wednesbury, including offices and hotels.
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
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.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
