Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing
Butt-jointed fire glass walls with minimal frames.
Learn more →From the IP1 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glass partitions for buildings across Ipswich, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

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.
Non-rated partitions on the same floor can be matched in profile and finish.
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.
Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.
We cover Ipswich and the surrounding postcode districts, including IP1, IP4, IP2, IP3, IP5. Nearby towns we also serve include Harwich, Felixstowe, Stowmarket. Ipswich is the main town we cover in Suffolk.
Every quote in Ipswich identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
If an existing frame in a Ipswich building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Ipswich 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.
We can survey and quote for healthcare buildings, blocks of flats and other building types in Ipswich.
Some butt-jointed systems are tested for fire. See our frameless fire-rated glazing service for what is possible.
Frames may be slightly deeper and glass slightly thicker, but most systems are hard to tell apart from standard partitions.
We can give a guide range from photos and sizes, including a clear photo of any marks on the glass. A fixed price follows a survey.
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
