What our fire-rated curtain walling service includes in Scarborough
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.
- External-grade fire glass
- Spandrel and opaque panel coordination
- Fire-rated zones within mixed facades
- Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
