Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Hertford: 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
- Coordination with your fit-out contractor
- Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
- Rated glazed doors and door frames
Key checks for Hertford projects
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.
Matching non-rated walls
Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.
Fit-out sequencing
Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.
