What's involved with fire-rated curtain walling in Lincoln
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
- Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
- External-grade fire glass

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters
Combustibility rules
In England, materials in the external walls of relevant buildings 18 metres or more in height are restricted. We coordinate with the facade designer on every component.
Slab edges
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
Thermal and acoustic
Fire-rated units can still meet thermal targets when specified correctly; we confirm U-values with the system supplier.
Which rules apply to fire-rated curtain walling in Lincoln?

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Questions about fire-rated curtain walling in Lincoln
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.
Do you carry out fire-rated curtain walling in Lincoln?
Yes. We survey and install in Lincoln and across Lincolnshire, including the LN2 district and nearby Gainsborough.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Lincoln?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
