What's involved with fire-rated glass partitions in Islington

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
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Rated glazed doors and door frames

Key checks for Islington 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.

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.

Fire glazing rules in England

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.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
