What's involved with fire-rated curtain walling in Stroud

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.

  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
  • External-grade fire glass
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination

What to check before ordering fire-rated curtain walling in Stroud

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.

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.

Thermal and acoustic

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