Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →If a building in Brixton needs frameless fire-rated glazing, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

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.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
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.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Whether the building is in central Brixton or the wider SW2, SW9, SE24, SE5, SW4, SE17 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Peckham, Pimlico, Battersea. Brixton sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Peckham.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
If an existing frame in a Brixton building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Frameless fire-rated glazing applies to many building types in Brixton, including retail and leisure units and hotels.
Each system states a maximum height. We check your floor-to-ceiling height against it during design.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Building work in Brixton follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
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.
