Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Oxford
Deflection
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
Cost
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
Doors
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
