What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Rushden

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.

  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Rated glazed doors and door frames
  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor
  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs

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.

Above the ceiling

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.
