We supply and install fire-rated curtain walling and fire-rated zones within standard curtain walling, alongside the fire-stopping at slab edges. External wall work is closely scrutinised after recent regulatory changes, so every element we fit is backed by evidence for its position.
External fire glass must be suitable for UV and weather exposure, usually in a sealed double-glazed unit with the fire pane positioned as tested.
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.
We cover Ayr and the surrounding postcode districts, including KA7, KA8, KA9. Nearby towns we also serve include Irvine, Kilmarnock, Newton Mearns. Ayr is about 19 km from Kilmarnock, the largest town in our Ayrshire coverage.
Every quote in Ayr identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Ayr building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
We can phase work in Ayr around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
