Fire-Rated Glass Partitions: what you get in Greater London
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.
- Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
- Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
- Coordination with your fit-out contractor

Key checks for Greater London projects
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.
Regulations for Greater London projects
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.
Questions from Greater London clients
Will a fire-rated partition look different?
Frames may be slightly deeper and glass slightly thicker, but most systems are hard to tell apart from standard partitions.
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.
Which parts of Greater London do you cover?
