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.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
