What's involved with fire-rated curtain walling in West Bromwich

We supply and install fire-rated curtain walling and fire-rated zones within standard curtain walling, alongside the fire-stopping at slab edges. External wall work is closely scrutinised after recent regulatory changes, so every element we fit is backed by evidence for its position.

  • Slab-edge fire-stopping and cavity barriers to the design
  • External-grade fire glass
  • Tested fire-rated curtain wall systems
  • Spandrel and opaque panel coordination

Before you order fire-rated curtain walling: what matters

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.
