Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing in Wimbledon: 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.

  • Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems
  • Frameless-look fire doors where tested
  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details
  • Manifestation design

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Wimbledon

The joint is part of the test

The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.

Protection on site

Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.

Height and corners

Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.

Fire glazing rules in England

England Which rules apply?

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.
