What our frameless fire-rated glazing service includes in Weston-super-Mare

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.

  • Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems
  • Frameless-look fire doors where tested
  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details
  • Rated sealant joints

Before you order frameless fire-rated glazing: what matters

Deflection

Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.

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.

Protection on site

Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.

Fire glazing rules in England

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.
