Fire-Rated Curtain Walling in Cleethorpes: what's included

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.

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

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

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.

Thermal and acoustic

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

Slab edges

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

Fire-Rated Curtain Walling: Cleethorpes questions

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.

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.

How quickly can you survey in Cleethorpes?

Survey timing in Cleethorpes 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 Cleethorpes?

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