What our frameless fire-rated glazing service includes in Ashford (Kent)
Frameless fire glazing only works within tight, tested limits: specific glass types, joint widths, sealants, channel details and maximum heights. We specify it where the evidence supports your layout, and tell you plainly when a slim framed system is the better route.
- Head, base and wall channels to the system details
- Manifestation design
- Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems
- Frameless-look fire doors where tested
Key checks for Ashford (Kent) projects
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.
Height and corners
Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.
Protection on site
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.

England regulations that shape the job
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.

Questions about frameless fire-rated glazing in Ashford (Kent)
How tall can frameless fire glass go?
Each system states a maximum height. We check your floor-to-ceiling height against it during design.
Can a frameless fire wall include a door?
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Ashford (Kent)?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Ashford (Kent)?
Survey timing in Ashford (Kent) depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
