Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →For Stirling buildings, we supply, replace and check frameless fire-rated glazing wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Scotland, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can phase work in Stirling around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Our Forth Valley coverage takes in Stirling (FK8, FK9, FK7) and the neighbouring towns of Alloa, Falkirk, Cumbernauld. Stirling is the largest town in our Forth Valley coverage.
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.
Frameless fire-rated glazing applies to many building types in Stirling, including offices and care homes.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Yes, using tested butt-jointed systems, usually with insulating glass. It must be installed exactly to the tested details.
Yes. We survey and install in Stirling and across Forth Valley, including the FK8 district and nearby Alloa.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
