Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Slough: what's included

Fire-rated glass partitions are office-style glazed walls that are also tested to resist fire, used where a meeting room, corridor wall or reception wall forms part of a protected route or compartment. They look like standard office partitions but use rated frames, glass and seals throughout.

  • Rated glazed doors and door frames
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor

Before you order fire-rated glass partitions: what matters

Above the ceiling

A fire-rated partition is only as good as the construction above it. If the wall has to run to the slab, the ceiling void needs fire-stopping or a rated head detail.

Acoustic privacy

Meeting rooms often need acoustic performance too. Some fire partition systems are tested for both; we confirm the combination.

Matching non-rated walls

Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.

Fire glazing rules 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.

Fire-Rated Glass Partitions: Slough questions

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 fire-rated partitions be frameless?

Some butt-jointed systems are tested for fire. See our frameless fire-rated glazing service for what is possible.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Slough?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.

Do you carry out fire-rated glass partitions in Slough?

Yes. We survey and install in Slough and across Berkshire, including the SL1 district and nearby Windsor.
