What our frameless fire-rated glazing service includes in Belfast

Frameless fire-rated glazing is a glass wall where panes meet edge to edge with a tested sealant joint instead of vertical frames, held in discreet head and base channels. It gives an almost uninterrupted view while still being tested to resist fire.

  • Handover evidence
  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details
  • Frameless-look fire doors where tested
  • Rated sealant joints

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Belfast

Deflection

Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.

Cost

Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.

Doors

True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
