Frameless Fire-Rated Glazing
Butt-jointed fire glass walls with minimal frames.
Learn more →We provide fire-rated glass partitions in Washington and across Tyne and Wear, working from the classification your building needs and handing over the evidence that proves what was fitted.

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.
Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.
Demountable systems can be reconfigured, but moving a rated partition means rechecking its evidence and fire-stopping in the new position.
Meeting rooms often need acoustic performance too. Some fire partition systems are tested for both; we confirm the combination.
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.
Whether the building is in central Washington or the wider NE37, NE38 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Chester-le-Street, Felling, Houghton-le-Spring. Washington is about 10 km from Newcastle upon Tyne, the largest town in our Tyne and Wear coverage.
We can phase work in Washington around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Every quote in Washington identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Fire-rated glass partitions applies to many building types in Washington, including retail and leisure units and healthcare buildings.
Some butt-jointed systems are tested for fire. See our frameless fire-rated glazing service for what is possible.
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.
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.
Survey timing in Washington 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.
