Key checks for Worcestershire projects
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.
Matching non-rated glazing
Aluminium fire screens can be visually matched to non-rated partitions elsewhere, so a floor reads as one design while only some walls are fire-rated.
Door hardware
Hinges, locks and closers fitted to doors within the screen must be compatible with the door's evidence.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
FAQs for Worcestershire
Is aluminium suitable for fire-rated glazing?
Yes, when it is a system designed and tested for fire. Ordinary aluminium partitions and windows are not fire-rated, however thick the glass.
Can aluminium fire screens be used outside?
Some systems are tested for external use. If the screen forms part of the building envelope we specify an external-rated system and glass.
What ratings can aluminium screens achieve?
30 and 60-minute ratings are common, in integrity or insulation classes depending on the glass. We confirm availability for the sizes you need.
Do you cover all of Worcestershire?
Yes. We take enquiries from across Worcestershire, including Worcester and Redditch, Kidderminster, Great Malvern, Bromsgrove, and arrange surveys to suit your programme.
