Fire-Rated Windows
Windows near boundaries and protected routes, tested for fire.

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 walls close to a boundary may need to be fire-resisting with limited unprotected areas. Fixed glazing that meets the wall's full fire-resistance requirement, including insulation where required, is not counted as unprotected area, so it can let you keep glass in those positions.
The gap between the curtain wall and each floor slab needs fire-stopping designed with the facade, not added afterwards.
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.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Bognor Regis, including the PO21, PO22 districts, and in nearby Chichester, Littlehampton, Worthing. Crawley, around 51 km from Bognor Regis, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bognor Regis budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Bognor Regis identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Fire-rated curtain walling applies to many building types in Bognor Regis, including schools and colleges and retail and leisure units.
We can supply and install on taller buildings where the project has the required approvals, and we provide evidence suitable for the Building Safety Regulator in England.
Yes. External fire-rated glazing is usually supplied as a sealed unit with the fire pane in a tested position.
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.
