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

Fire-rated curtain walling is a glazed facade system tested to resist fire, used where an external wall has to stop fire spreading to a neighbouring building, between floors, or past a protected stair or lobby. It combines facade performance, such as weather tightness and thermal values, with a fire classification.

  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design

Key checks for Aylesbury projects

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.

Thermal and acoustic

Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.

External-grade glass

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.

FAQs for Aylesbury

When does curtain walling need to be fire-rated?

Typically where the facade is near a boundary, where it encloses a protected stair or lobby, or where fire spread between floors has to be controlled. The fire strategy sets the requirement.

Can fire glass be used in double-glazed units?

Yes. External fire-rated glazing is usually supplied as a sealed unit with the fire pane in a tested position.

How quickly can you survey in Aylesbury?

Survey timing in Aylesbury 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.

Can you price fire-rated curtain walling in Aylesbury from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
