What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Abingdon

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.

  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor
  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping

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.

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.

Dilapidations and moves

Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.

Abingdon coverage and nearby towns

Whether the building is in central Abingdon or the wider OX14 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Didcot, Oxford, Witney. Oxford, around 9 km from Abingdon, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
