  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • External-grade fire glass

What you can expect in Bushey

Rated systems, not just rated glass

Every quote in Bushey identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Bushey building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

England rules applied

Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters

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.

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.

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.

England regulations that shape the job

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.

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.

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.

FAQs for Bushey

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.

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.

Do you carry out fire-rated curtain walling in Bushey?

Yes. We survey and install in Bushey and across Hertfordshire, including the WD23 district and nearby Watford.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Bushey?

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