Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing
Butt-jointed fire glass walls with minimal frames.
Learn more →From the YO1 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glass partitions for buildings across York, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
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.
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.
Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.
Whether the building is in central York or the wider YO1, YO10, YO31, YO24 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Selby, Harrogate, Goole. York is the largest town in our North Yorkshire coverage.
We can phase work in York around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so York budgets are not open-ended.
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.
Fire-rated glass partitions applies to many building types in York, including public buildings and healthcare buildings.
Yes. We can supply and install the rated glazing package within a wider fit-out, working to your programme.
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.
Survey timing in York depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
Yes. We survey and install in York and across North Yorkshire, including the YO1 district and nearby Selby.
