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.
Our West Yorkshire coverage takes in Castleford (WF10, WF6) and the neighbouring towns of Pontefract, Wakefield, Leeds. Castleford lies roughly 14 km from Leeds, within our West Yorkshire coverage.
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.
Frameless fire glazing is at the top of the price range because of the glass and precision required.
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.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
