What our fire-rated curtain walling service includes in Haverhill

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.

  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • External-grade fire glass
  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades

How we work in Haverhill

England rules applied

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

Honest about unknowns

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

Fixed written quotes

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

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.

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.

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.
