Fire-Rated Windows
Windows near boundaries and protected routes, tested for fire.

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.
Work on higher-risk residential buildings in England goes through the Building Safety Regulator, which needs full product evidence at the design stage.
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.
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
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.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
We cover Hayes and the surrounding postcode districts, including UB3, UB11, UB4, UB18, UB7, UB1. Nearby towns we also serve include Southall, Heston, Greenford. Hayes is one of the Greater London districts we cover.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can phase work in Hayes around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Hayes budgets are not open-ended.
Fire-rated curtain walling applies to many building types in Hayes, including blocks of flats and hotels.
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.
Sometimes, if the existing system has a tested fire-rated version. Otherwise a local replacement may be needed.
Yes. We survey and install in Hayes and across Greater London, including the UB3 district and nearby Southall.
Building work in Hayes follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
