Fire-Rated Glass Partitions
Office glass partitions where the wall has to be fire-resisting.
Learn more →From the WV1 district outwards, we arrange frameless fire-rated glazing for buildings across Wolverhampton, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
Channels at the head have to allow for slab movement without loading the glass.
Maximum heights and the ability to form corners vary by system. Corners may need a post or a specific tested joint.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Wolverhampton, including the WV1, WV2, WV3, WV4, WV14, WV11 districts, and in nearby Wednesfield, Willenhall, Tipton. Wolverhampton is about 19 km from Birmingham, the largest town in our West Midlands coverage.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Every quote in Wolverhampton identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Wolverhampton building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Frameless fire-rated glazing applies to many building types in Wolverhampton, including offices and retail and leisure units.
Yes, typically. It also needs more careful site protection.
Usually through a slim framed door set into the run, chosen so the combination is covered by evidence.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Survey timing in Wolverhampton depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
