What our fire-rated curtain walling service includes in Coventry

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.

  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • Handover evidence for the building record
  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • Fire-rated zones within mixed facades

Key checks for Coventry projects

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.

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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated curtain walling in Coventry?

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.

FAQs for Coventry

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 fire glass be used in double-glazed units?

Yes. External fire-rated glazing is usually supplied as a sealed unit with the fire pane in a tested position.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Coventry?

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

Can you price fire-rated curtain walling in Coventry from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
