What's involved with fire-rated glass partitions in East Kilbride

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.

  • Rated glazed doors and door frames
  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested

Key checks for East Kilbride projects

Dilapidations and moves

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

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.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glass partitions in East Kilbride?

Scotland Which rules apply?

In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.

For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.

Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
