Fire-Rated Glass Partitions in Thornaby-on-Tees: what's included

  • Rated glazed doors and door frames
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor
  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs

Before you order fire-rated glass partitions: what matters

Acoustic privacy

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

Fit-out sequencing

Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.

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.
