Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Urmston: what's included

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
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Rated glazed doors and door frames

Key checks for Urmston projects

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.

Dilapidations and moves

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