Fire-Rated Curtain Walling in Windsor: what's included

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.

  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • External-grade fire glass

What every Windsor quote includes

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Windsor identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Key checks for Windsor projects

Slab edges

The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.

Boundaries

External walls close to a boundary may need to be fire-resisting with limited unprotected areas. Fixed glazing that meets the wall's full fire-resistance requirement, including insulation where required, is not counted as unprotected area, so it can let you keep glass in those positions.

Higher-risk buildings

Work on higher-risk residential buildings in England goes through the Building Safety Regulator, which needs full product evidence at the design stage.

Areas we cover around Windsor

Our Berkshire coverage takes in Windsor (SL4, SL3, SL1) and the neighbouring towns of Slough, Egham, Staines-upon-Thames. Reading, around 26 km from Windsor, is the largest town in the same coverage area.

Which rules apply to fire-rated curtain walling in Windsor?

England Which rules apply?

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
