Fire-Rated Glazed Screens
Internal glazed screens that keep compartments and corridors protected.
Learn more →For Wakefield buildings, we supply, replace and check aluminium fire-rated screens wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Our West Yorkshire coverage takes in Wakefield (WF1, WF2) and the neighbouring towns of Ossett, Dewsbury, Morley. Wakefield is about 13 km from Leeds, the largest town in our West Yorkshire coverage.
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.
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.
Head details and fixing centres come from the system documentation, especially beneath long-span slabs.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
We can phase work in Wakefield around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Wakefield identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Wakefield building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Sector guides below cover industrial units, offices and other buildings in Wakefield.
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Usually they can be matched closely in profile and colour so rated and non-rated areas look consistent.
Survey timing in Wakefield depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Yes. We survey and install in Wakefield and across West Yorkshire, including the WF1 district and nearby Ossett.
