What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Bridgend

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.

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

Before you order fire-rated glass partitions: what matters

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.

Acoustic privacy

Meeting rooms often need acoustic performance too. Some fire partition systems are tested for both; we confirm the combination.

Which rules apply to fire-rated glass partitions in Bridgend?

Wales Which rules apply?

Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.

Wales is introducing its own building safety regime for occupied residential buildings, so check current Welsh requirements before planning major works to blocks of flats.

Frames may be slightly deeper and glass slightly thicker, but most systems are hard to tell apart from standard partitions.
