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

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.

  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested

How we work in Berkhamsted

Honest about unknowns

If an existing frame in a Berkhamsted building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.

Work around occupied buildings

We can phase work in Berkhamsted around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Evidence you can file

You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.

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

Matching non-rated walls

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

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.
