What's involved with fire-rated glass partitions in Derby
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.
- Coordination with your fit-out contractor
- Rated glazed doors and door frames
- Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
- Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested

Honest about unknowns

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