What our fire-rated glass partitions service includes in Whitley Bay
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.
- Single-glazed and double-glazed rated options where tested
- Fire-rated partition systems for office fit-outs
- Perimeter and ceiling-void fire-stopping
- Manifestation to the impact and visibility rules
What to check before ordering fire-rated glass partitions in Whitley Bay
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.
Fit-out sequencing
Rated partitions need fire-stopping inspected before ceilings close. We plan inspection points into the fit-out programme.
