Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →If a building in Harrow 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.
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
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 Harrow or the wider HA2, HA1, HA3, HA0, HA9, HA5 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Brent, Wembley, Northolt. Harrow sits within our Greater London coverage, alongside Brent.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Harrow budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Harrow building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in Harrow identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Sector guides below cover blocks of flats, schools and colleges and other buildings in Harrow.
Yes, typically. It also needs more careful site protection.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Yes. We survey and install in Harrow and across Greater London, including the HA2 district and nearby Brent.
