Before you order aluminium fire-rated screens: what matters

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.

Door hardware

Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
