What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Berkshire
Office fit-outs often only need fire-rated glazing on certain lines, such as corridors that serve as escape routes. We work from your fire strategy to rate only what needs rating, and match the look across the rest of the floor so the design stays consistent.
- Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
- Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
- Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
What to check before ordering in Berkshire
Matching non-rated walls
Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.
Dilapidations and moves
Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.
Fit-out sequencing
Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.

Which rules apply in England?
England Which rules apply?
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.
Questions from Berkshire clients
Do office glass partitions need to be fire-rated?
Only where the fire strategy says the wall is fire-resisting, for example along a protected escape corridor or a compartment line. Many meeting room walls do not need a rating.
Can you work with our fit-out contractor?
Yes. We can supply and install the rated glazing package within a wider fit-out, working to your programme.
Will a fire-rated partition look different?
Frames may be slightly deeper and glass slightly thicker, but most systems are hard to tell apart from standard partitions.
Can you survey anywhere in Berkshire?
Yes. We can arrange surveys anywhere in Berkshire, including Reading and Slough, Bracknell, Maidenhead, Wokingham.
