Steel Fire-Rated Screens
Slim steel frames for long spans, high ratings and heavy glass.
Learn more →From the CH6 district outwards, we arrange fire-rated glazed screens for buildings across Flint, matching glass, frames and seals to tested evidence rather than guesswork.

We design, supply and install fire-rated screens in steel, aluminium, timber and frameless formats, working from the rating and positions on your fire strategy. Every screen is built within the limits of its test or assessment evidence: pane sizes, transom and mullion spacing, glass type and the way it is fixed to the surrounding structure.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in Wales, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Flint budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Flint identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Test evidence covers the screen's connection to specific supporting constructions, such as masonry, concrete or a tested partition. Fixing into a lightweight wall that is not covered can undermine the rating, so we check the substrate first.
A door in a glazed screen has to be tested in that configuration or covered by a doorset certificate and an assessment for the screen. We specify the door and screen as one system rather than mixing products.
Fire glass can be combined with acoustic or security performance in many systems. We confirm the combined build-up is covered before pricing it.
Coverage around Flint includes the CH6 districts and nearby Deeside, Buckley, Heswall. Wrexham, around 24 km from Flint, is the largest town in the same coverage area.
Building regulations are devolved in Wales, so fire safety design follows the Welsh Ministers' version of Approved Document B rather than the English one, alongside impact safety guidance for glazing.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, so the responsible person must maintain fire-resisting glazing as part of the premises' fire safety measures. The Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed this extends to the structure, external walls and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings.
Fire-rated glazed screens applies to many building types in Flint, including care homes and schools and colleges.
Yes. Many screens are glazed from floor to ceiling, subject to the classification needed on that route and any impact safety requirements at low level.
Yes. We plan dust control, out-of-hours working and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
Flint is in Wales, where the Welsh Approved Document B applies to building work and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers occupied premises.
Yes. We survey and install in Flint and across Clwyd, including the CH6 district and nearby Deeside.
