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

Fire-rated glass partitions are office-style glazed walls that are also tested to resist fire, used where a meeting room, corridor wall or reception wall forms part of a protected route or compartment. They look like standard office partitions but use rated frames, glass and seals throughout.

  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Rated glazed doors and door frames
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping

Before you order fire-rated glass partitions: what matters

Acoustic privacy

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

Dilapidations and moves

Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.

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.

FAQs for Richmond

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.

Can you price fire-rated glass partitions in Richmond from photos?

We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.

Do you work on occupied buildings in Richmond?

Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
