What to check before ordering fire-rated curtain walling in Heanor
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.
Slab edges
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
Which rules apply to fire-rated curtain walling in Heanor?
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.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Fire-Rated Curtain Walling: Heanor questions
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 you add fire-rated zones to existing curtain walling?
Sometimes, if the existing system has a tested fire-rated version. Otherwise a local replacement may be needed.
Do you carry out fire-rated curtain walling in Heanor?
Yes. We survey and install in Heanor and across Derbyshire, including the DE75 district and nearby Ripley.
How quickly can you survey in Heanor?
Survey timing in Heanor 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.
