Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →From the G74 district outwards, we arrange frameless fire-rated glazing for buildings across East Kilbride, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
