Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →If a building in Yeovil 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-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.
If an existing frame in a Yeovil building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
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.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
Our Somerset coverage takes in Yeovil (BA20, BA21) and the neighbouring towns of Bridgwater, Taunton, Weymouth. Bath, around 52 km from Yeovil, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
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.
Sector guides below cover schools and colleges, offices and other buildings in Yeovil.
Each system states a maximum height. We check your floor-to-ceiling height against it during design.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Building work in Yeovil follows the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B, and occupied buildings are covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
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.
