What's involved with fire-rated curtain walling in Lytham St Annes

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
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters

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.

Slab edges

The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.

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.
