What our frameless fire-rated glazing service includes in Fareham
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.
- Rated sealant joints
- Head, base and wall channels to the system details
- Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems
- Frameless-look fire doors where tested
What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Fareham
Deflection
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
Protection on site
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
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.
