Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing in Alloa: what's included
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.
- Frameless-look fire doors where tested
- Rated sealant joints
- Handover evidence
- Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems

True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
Cost
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.

Scotland rules applied

Which rules apply to frameless fire-rated glazing in Alloa?
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
