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

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.

Matching non-rated walls

Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.

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.
