Key checks for Finchley 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.
Deflection
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
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.
