Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
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.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
