Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Margate: 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.

  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Rated glazed doors and door frames

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

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.

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.
