Key checks for Portslade projects

Height and corners

Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.

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.

Protection on site

Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
