Before you order fire-rated glass partitions: what matters
Dilapidations and moves
Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.
Acoustic privacy
Meeting rooms often need acoustic performance too. Some fire partition systems are tested for both; we confirm the combination.
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.
