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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Barnsley around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
If an existing frame in a Barnsley building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Our South Yorkshire coverage takes in Barnsley (S70, S75, S71) and the neighbouring towns of Darton, Chapeltown, Wakefield. Sheffield, around 19 km from Barnsley, 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.
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.
Frameless fire-rated glazing applies to many building types in Barnsley, including retail and leisure units and blocks of flats.
