Butt-jointed fire glass walls with minimal frames.
Learn more →For Oadby buildings, we supply, replace and check fire-rated glass partitions wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.

Fire-rated glass partitions are office-style glazed walls that are also tested to resist fire, used where a meeting room, corridor wall or reception wall forms part of a protected route or compartment. They look like standard office partitions but use rated frames, glass and seals throughout.
Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.
Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.
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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Oadby, including the LE2, LE18, LE5, LE1 districts, and in nearby Wigston, Leicester, Market Harborough. Oadby is about 5 km from Leicester, the largest town in our Leicestershire coverage.
If an existing frame in a Oadby building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
We can phase work in Oadby around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
Sector guides below cover care homes, public buildings and other buildings in Oadby.
Some butt-jointed systems are tested for fire. See our frameless fire-rated glazing service for what is possible.
Only where the fire strategy says the wall is fire-resisting, for example along a protected escape corridor or a compartment line. Many meeting room walls do not need a rating.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
