Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing in Blackburn: what's included

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
  • Frameless-look fire doors where tested
  • Manifestation design
  • Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems

Before you order frameless fire-rated glazing: what matters

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.

Cost

Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
