What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Stowmarket

  • Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
  • Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
  • Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
  • Coordination with your fit-out contractor

What to check before ordering fire-rated glass partitions in Stowmarket

Dilapidations and moves

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

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.
