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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Belfast, including the BT1, BT14, BT15, BT2, BT3, BT12 districts, and in nearby Newtownabbey, Lisburn, Newtownards. Belfast is the largest town in our County Antrim coverage.
Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.
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.
In Northern Ireland, building work follows the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012, with fire safety guidance in Technical Booklet E, approved by the district council's building control.
Once in use, the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require the appropriate person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing.
Technical Booklet E sets its own provisions for glazing on escape routes, so designs are checked against the Northern Ireland guidance rather than English documents.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Belfast budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Belfast identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in Belfast around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Fire-rated curtain walling applies to many building types in Belfast, including public buildings and healthcare buildings.
Sometimes, if the existing system has a tested fire-rated version. Otherwise a local replacement may be needed.
We can supply and install on taller buildings where the project has the required approvals, and we provide evidence suitable for the Building Safety Regulator in England.
Survey timing in Belfast 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.
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.
