What to check before ordering fire-rated glass partitions in Plymouth

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.

Acoustic privacy

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