Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Wokingham: 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.

  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor
  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested

Key checks for Wokingham projects

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.

Dilapidations and moves

Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.

Manifestation

Large glass walls need manifestation so people can see them. Applied film must be compatible with the glass and not cover any marks building control may need to see.
