Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →If a building in Arnold needs frameless fire-rated glazing, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

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.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
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.
Whether the building is in central Arnold or the wider NG5, NG6, NG4 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Nottingham, Hucknall, West Bridgford. Nottingham, around 5 km from Arnold, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Arnold budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
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.
Frameless fire-rated glazing applies to many building types in Arnold, including public buildings and hotels.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Yes, using tested butt-jointed systems, usually with insulating glass. It must be installed exactly to the tested details.
Survey timing in Arnold 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.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
