What our fire-rated curtain walling service includes in Putney

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.

  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination
  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters

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.

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.

FAQs for Putney

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.

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.

How quickly can you survey in Putney?

Survey timing in Putney 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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Putney?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
