  • External-grade fire glass
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination
  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems

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

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.

Slab edges

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

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.

England regulations that shape the job

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

Fire-Rated Curtain Walling: Leatherhead 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.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Leatherhead?

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

Which rules apply to fire-rated glazing in Leatherhead?

Building work in Leatherhead follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
