Fire-Rated Curtain Walling in Newquay: 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
  • External-grade fire glass

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters

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.

Combustibility rules

In England, materials in the external walls of relevant buildings 18 metres or more in height are restricted. We coordinate with the facade designer on every component.

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.

Newquay coverage and nearby towns

Whether the building is in central Newquay or the wider TR7, TR8 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Truro, St Austell, Redruth. Newquay lies roughly 23 km from Truro, within our Cornwall coverage.
