What's involved with frameless fire-rated glazing in Horsham

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.

  • Manifestation design
  • Tested butt-jointed insulating or integrity glass systems
  • Rated sealant joints
  • Head, base and wall channels to the system details

What to check before ordering frameless fire-rated glazing in Horsham

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.

The joint is part of the test

The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
