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

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.

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

Key checks for Failsworth projects

Fit-out sequencing

Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.

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.
